Magnetization, Anomalous Hall Effect and Single Pulse Partial All-optical Switching in Amorphous Rare-earth Transition-metal Thin Films
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2023)Research on rare-earth (R) transition-metal (T) thin films has a long history. A revival of interest in this field was sparked by the discovery of single pulse all-optical switching (SP-AOS) in a-GdFeCo1 alloy thin films ... -
New Technologies for Ultra-low Dose-rate Imaging in the STEM
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2023)Electron microscopy arose from the need to image materials beyond the resolution optical microscopes could achieve. Though taking many years and technological advancements, the modern scanning transmission electron microscope ... -
Quantum transport in 2D materials: Theoretical and computational optimisation of large heterostructures with spintronics properties
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2023)Graphene is a monolayer of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice, making it the thinnest and strongest material known to man. Its exceptional electronic and thermal properties have generated great interest for its ... -
Spectroscopic studies of on-surface synthesis of chiral graphene nanoribbons
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2023)The field of on-surface synthesis bridges physics, chemistry, material and surface science by combining the tunability of molecular materials, the advantages of self-assembly with the sturdiness of covalently bonded ... -
Quantifying Battery Rate Performance
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2023)The global energy demand is quickly increasing and sustainable energy solutions are needed to keep pace. Batteries have emerged as the premier energy storage solution for increasing the adoption of renewable energy sources, ...
