Artificial spin ice systems on single edge length tilings
Ellie Weightman, Sam Coates
Artificial spin ices (ASIs) are decorations of single domain nanomagnets on geometric lattices allowing for study of magnetic interactions on easily varied lattice geometries. We e…

Octagonal tilings with three prototiles
April Lynne D. Say-awen, Sam Coates
Motivated by theoretically and experimentally observed structural phases with octagonal symmetry, we introduce a family of octagonal tilings which are composed of three prototiles.…

Designing aperiodic to periodic interfaces
Sam Coates
Symmetry sharing facilitates coherent interfaces which can transition from periodic to aperiodic structures. Motivated by the design and construction of such systems, we present he…
