A method is proposed to precisely control the emission energy of semiconductor quantum
dots (QDs) by the application of local strain due to volume expansion of a phase-change …

Using simultaneous magnetic force microscopy and transport measurements of a graphene
spin valve, we correlate the non-local spin signal with the magnetization of the device …

We present a new tool for imaging spin properties. We show that a spatially averaged spin
signal, measured as a function of a scanned magnetic probe's position, contains information …

Understanding the complex properties of electronic and spintronic devices at the micro-and
nano-scale is a topic of intense current interest as it becomes increasingly important for …

As van der Waals layered materials are reduced from bulk crystals to monolayer sheets, a
host of electronic, optoelectronic, and mechanical properties emerge which differ from those …

Control of electronic spins in paramagnetic systems opens new avenues for the next
generation of logic and memory devices. It also gives us new opportunities in biomedical …

We have proposed a method to achieve near-field imaging spectroscopy of single
semiconductor quantum dots with high sensitivity by using an optical mask layer of a phase …

This project resulted in the following accomplishments: 1) The invention of scanned probe
ferromagnetic resonance microscopy. Upon implementation and refinement this approach …

Combining the techniques of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with cantilever force
microscopy, images with a resolution of a single electron have been demonstrated. This …

The idea that the spin degree of freedom of particles can be used to store and transport
information has revolutionized the data storage industry and inspired a huge amount of …
