The Dean’s Award for Outstanding PhD Theses recognises PhD graduates who have been commended by their thesis examiners. The Dean’s Award has been introduced to formally recognize the high quality PhD theses produced at UNSW. To receive this award, candidates must produce a thesis that requires only minimal corrections and in the opinion of.
William D. Ratcliff II, Jeffrey W. Lynn, in Experimental Methods in the Physical Sciences, 2015. Abstract. Multiferroics (MFs) are insulating materials that are simultaneously magnetically ordered and ferroelectric (FE). From a fundamental standpoint, it is interesting to understand the properties and coupling of these two disparate types of order.
The Department of Physics and Astronomy is a broad-based department with a wide range of research interests covering many key topics in contemporary physics, astronomy, and applied physics. We are a vibrant community that engages in a wide range of research directions, from probing the origin of the universe to exploring emergent phenomena in complex systems, that provide deep insights into.
Graduate Thesis; PhD Thesis;. from the use of spin polarized currents in magneto-tunnel junction to the use of electric fields on multiferroics material passing from the mechanical stress of magnetostrictive layers all these approaches present advantages and drawbacks that are nowadays under the scrutiny of the research community. In our.
The demands from electronic devices have always been to be portable, fast, non-volatile, more intelligent and to consume low energy. One way towards this goal is to introduce multifunctionality of materials in devices. Ferromagnetism and ferroelectricity are two order parameters that can be coupled in a limited number of multiferroics and their coexistence implies the control over.

The cross-coupling between magnetism and ferroelectricity affords very promising avenues for the development of novel electronic devices. The feasibility of electrical control of the magnetization and viceversa, the control of the electrical polarization with magnetic fields, is the basic step towards new memories with multi-bit storage capabilities (in which the information is encoded by the.
However, if thin-film multiferroics are to be incorporated into future data storage devices, a much greater understanding of their behaviour and how they differ from their bulk counterparts is required. In this thesis, we probe the fundamental multiferroic properties of BiFeO 3 films through a combination of st.

Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) 1,371. This thesis begins with the development and characterization of an improved technique for measuring the resistance response of materials to strain, using AC strain at frequencies between 10mHz and 10kHz. By using strain of the same symmetry as the electronic-nematic order parameter in Ba(Fe0.975Co0.025)2As2.
