Electric Control of Magnetization Dynamics (ECOMAGICS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2017,

In this proposal a new electric field based approach for the control of magnetization dynamics is discussed. The advantage of using electric fields compared to magnetic fields is twofold: (i) electric fields are easy to confine in nano-structures (screening), and (ii) no current flow is required which may allow for the development of new spintronic devices with ultra low power consumption.Physical ...

Actuation and characterisation at the single bond limit (ACRITAS)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2017,

"Scanning probe microscopy(SPM) has now evolved to the point where not only is imaging and manipulation with single atom resolution achievable but the state of the art in the field involves sub-molecular and sub-atomic resolution: individual chemical bonds can be resolved, their properties measured, and their spatial symmetry exploited.SPM is, however, increasingly a victim of its own success. The ...

Flavour physics from lattice QCD at the physical point (LATTICE FLAVOUR QCD)

Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2015,

The matrix elements of the electro-weak mixing matrix, the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix, are of importance to many experimental and phenomenological applications in flavour physics. We will address the particular matrix element V(us), which can be extracted from experimental measurements once the kaon semi-leptonic form factors for the K(l3) decay is known. Therefore, we will provide quantitat ...
