Since 2007, at the Electron Science Research Institute (ESRI) nano-fabrication laboratories,
Edith Cowan University, Australia, we have devoted research efforts to the synthesis and …

Magnetic nanostructures with nontrivial three-dimensional (3D) shapes enable complex
magnetization configurations and a wide variety of new phenomena. To date predominantly …

This chapter explores the deposition of ferrite films using a myriad of physical, chemical, and
mechanical deposition technologies, including molecular beam epitaxy, pulsed‐laser …

Magnetic garnets such as yttrium iron garnet (Y 3 Fe 5 O 12, YIG) are widely used in
spintronic and magnonic devices. Their magnetic and magneto-optical properties can be …

A wide variety of new phenomena such as novel magnetization configurations have been
predicted to occur in three dimensional magnetic nanostructures. However, the fabrication of …

Extrinsic spin-orbit scattering is a mechanism which can give rise to, and enhance, both the
anomalous and spin Hall effects. In this thesis, it is shown that spin-dependent scattering …
