1. Magnetoplasmonic nanostructures
Abstract : Surfaces that are nanopatterned, metallic, and magnetic can support surface plasmon resonances, providing an alternative and effective way to reconfigure flat optical components. Utilising a range of near- and far-field characterisation techniques, the optical and magneto-optical properties of lithographically patterned thin magnetic films are investigated. READ MORE

2. A Theoretical Study of Magnetism in Nanostructured Materials
Abstract : A first-principles linear scaling real-space method for investigating non-collinear magnetic behaviour of nanostructured materials has been developed. With this method, the magnetic structures of small supported transition metal clusters have been examined. READ MORE

3. Designing order with long-range interactions in mesoscopic magnetic chains
Abstract : This thesis investigates how the low-energy magnetic configuration of a mesoscopic chain can be tuned by geometrical modifications. The magnetic arrays made by single-domain stadium shaped elements positioned side-by-side were fabricated by patterning into a sputtered ferromagnetic thin film. READ MORE

4. Design, Synthesis And Characterization Of Magnetic Ferrite Nanostructures : Toward Novel Permanent Magnets
Abstract : Magnetic oxide nanoparticles (NPs) may interact with each-other for example via dipolar or superexchange interactions, depending whether they are in direct contact. These interparticle interactions yield both ferro- and/or antiferromagnetic coupling and modify the energy barrier of the magnetic particle, depending upon the strength of the coupling and orientation of the particles.

5. Effects of Spin-Orbit Interactions in Ferromagnetic Metal Nanoparticles
Abstract : This thesis is a theoretical investigation of the effects of spin-orbit (SO) interactions in ferromagnetic metal nano-particles. Part I of the thesis is devoted to an elementary introduction of the research field, including recent experimental advances which partly motivated the work presented here. READ MORE
