Current Research
My research is in electronic theory of magnetism and magnetotransport; some of the current topics are:
- Thermal effects in the electronic structure and transport properties of magnetic materials and heterostructures
- Surface magnetism of magnetoelectric antiferromagnets, particularly chromia (collaboration with Christian Binek and Peter Dowben)
- Development of Gd-doped oxides for neutron detection technology (collaboration with Peter Dowben)
- Phase transformations in confined nanosystems (collaboration with Jeff Shield)
