U.S.-France Cooperative Research: New Directions for Artificially Structured Magnetic Materials

这项为期三年的凝聚态物理美法合作研究奖涉及俄亥俄州立大学的罗伯特·L·斯坦普斯和法国斯特拉斯堡材料物理和化学研究所的卡迈勒·奥纳杰拉的研究小组。该奖项为斯坦普斯博士和他的研究生提供旅行支持和生活费。本研究的目的是研究亚微米和纳米尺度的磁性多层膜、线和图案化阵列中的磁相互作用和磁化过程。该项目利用了法国在磁性薄膜生长方面的专业知识。此外，美国在薄膜特性方面的专业知识也将促进人们对磁性材料的了解。

This three-year award for U.S.-France cooperative research in condensed matter physics involves the research groups of Robert L. Stamps at Ohio State University and Kamel Ounadjela at the Institute for the Physics and Chemistry of Materials in Strasbourg, France. The award provides travel support and living expenses to Dr. Stamps and his graduate student. The objective of the research is to investigate the magnetic interactions and magnetization processes in thin magnetic multilayer films, wires and patterned arrays of submicron and nanometer dimensions. The project takes advantage of French expertise in the growth of magnetic films. This is complemented by U.S. expertise in the properties of thin films and will advance understanding of magnetic materials.
