Designing bistable nanostructures for target behavior
Andreas Ehrmann, Marija Krstić, Sahar Samadzadeh +1
Many biological machines function through controlled conformational transitions, yet designing synthetic nanostructures with prescribed dynamical behavior remains a major challenge…
Stable Asymmetric Magnetization Reversal in Epitaxial Co(001)/CoO(001) Bilayer
Maik Gaerner, Judith Bünte, Finn Peters +8
The exchange bias (EB) in ferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic (FM/AFM) bilayer systems causes a shift of the magnetic hysteresis curve after field cooling through the Néel temperature…
Cubic magneto-optic Kerr effect in Co(111) thin films
Maik Gaerner, Robin Silber, Malte Schäffer +4
The magneto-optic Kerr effect (MOKE) is often applied as a tool for the magnetic characterization of thin films. Here, the change in polarization upon reflection from the magnetize…
Controlling energy delivery with bistable nanostructures
Andreas Ehrmann, Carl P. Goodrich
Countless biological processes are fueled by energy-rich molecules like ATP and GTP that supply energy with extreme efficiency. However, designing similar energy-delivery schemes f…
