    Fluidic chamber placed on top of   graphene sensor to exchange fluid   and hence protein or chemical   concentration during a measurement.

Objective: To study the dynamics of magneto-resistance in organic diodes Approach: Measure electronic transport and magneto-transport of organic diodes as a function of frequency with an applied magnetic field using admittance spectroscopy

Objective: To develop and characterize new plasmonic metamaterials in the terahertz (THz) spectral range. Approach: Explore unconventional materials that are typically not suitable for plasmonics applications at optical frequencies but exhibit reasonable conductivities at THz frequencies. Results and Significance: Liquid metals and well-developed microfluidic technology can be used successfully to create useful devices in a frequency range commonly referred to as the “gap in the electromagnetic spectrum.”

Objective: A precise absolute magnetometer based on organic spintronics that is scalable to micron dimensions, has low cost and that is not adversely affected by environmental influences (temperature, air etc.). Approach: Integrated bipolar MEH-PPV device above magnetic field strip lines for magnetic resonant excitation. The B-field is measured through spin-dependent current changes under magnetic resonance. Results and Significance: For the p-conjugated polymer MEH-PPV, an ABSOLUTE sensitivity of

Newly discovered “giant” spin Hall effect enables simple and efficient magnetic memory

Advances in polymer synthesis have enabled access to a vast array of multiblock polymer architectures, with rich opportunities for designing multiple functionalities into a single self-assembled material.

Physicists have predicted that graphene, a single atomic sheet of carbon, could be turned magnetic simply by attaching a hydrogen atom (or removing a carbon atom). However, detecting this magnetism has been elusive due to many pitfalls that arise using traditional methods. Kawakami has developed a new method to detect magnetism in graphene. Pure spin currents are injected into graphene, which then depolarize in a particular and recognizable way if magnetic moments
