Magnetic spin waves (magnons) are promising building blocks in developing classical and quantum hybrid systems. Magnons can couple to numerous sub-systems, such as microwave and optical photons, superconducting qubits and phonons. However, the parametric interaction between magnons and...

The vortex state in a magnetic disk contains a zero-dimensional domain wall, and consequently, is a system of interest for the study of fundamental physics. In particular, the disk geometry presents a prototypical system to study the properties of vortex states and to construct proof-of-concept...

Collisions of motorized transport with wildlife impact a wide range of species and can cause injuries and economic losses to people. On roads, vehicle collisions with animals have been studied extensively, resulting in mitigation measures that reduce collisions by segregating animals and...

New ternary rare-earth antimonides and germanides: bonding, structures, and physical properties
DownloadFall 2009
This thesis focuses on the synthesis, structures, and physical properties of ternary rare-earth antimonides and germanides. These ternary compounds exhibit diverse polyanionic substructures with classical and non-classical Sb–Sb bonding, Ge–Ge bonding, or both. The Zintl-Klemm concept and band...

The Einstein-de Haas (EdH) effect was measured for the first time more than a century ago, and a classical theory of its operational principle existed many years before the first observation of the effect. EdH torques are generated by the time rate of change of angular momentum and represent the...
