We report measurements of the electron transport through atomic-scale constrictions and tunnel junctions between ferromagnetic electrodes. Structures are fabricated using a combination of e-beam lithography and controlled electromigration.…

We have fabricated (Ga,Mn)As nanostructures in which domain walls can be pinned by sub-10 nm constrictions. Controlled by shape anisotropy, we can switch the regions on either side of the constriction to either parallel or antiparallel…

We have performed magnetoresistance (MR) measurements of granular ferromagnets having lateral dimensions smaller than 0.5 $\mu$m and containing a small number of grains (down to about 100). Compared to macroscopic samples, these granular…

A ferroelectric tunnel barrier in between two ferromagnetic electrodes (multiferroic tunnel junction, MFTJ), is one of the most promising concepts for future microelectronic devices. In parallel, Hafnia based ferroelectrics are showing…

Stable and switchable polarization of ferroelectric materials opens a possibility to electrically control their functional behavior. A particularly promising approach is to employ ferroelectric tunnel junctions where the polarization…

We study transport through a ferromagnetic single-electron transistor. The resistance is represented as a path integral, so that systems where the tunnel resistances are smaller than the quantum resistance can be investigated. Beyond the…

We report large anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) behaviours in single lateral (Ga,Mn)As nanoconstriction of up to 1300%, along with large multistable telegraphic switching. The nanoconstriction devices are fabricated using…

We measure the low-temperature resistance of permalloy break junctions as a function of contact size and the magnetic field angle, in applied fields large enough to saturate the magnetization. For both nanometer-scale metallic contacts and…

We report on magnetotransport investigations of nano-scaled ferromagnetic Co/Ni/Co single electron transistors. As a result of reduced size, the devices exhibit single electron transistor characteristics at 4.2K. Magnetotransport…

We have studied the influence of the transverse size of a magnetic tunnel nanojunction on the magnitude of the magnetoresistance. During modeling, the size of the right contact was fixed, while the size of the left one gradually changed…

We calculate the resistivity and Giant Magnetoresistance (GMR) of a segmented nanowire consisting of two ferromagnetic segments separated by a thin paramagnetic spacer. The quantization of the electron motion due to the small nanowire…

Segmented magnetic nanowires are a promising route for the development of three dimensional data storage techniques. Such devices require a control of the coercive field and the coupling mechanisms between individual magnetic elements. In…

We report a large tunneling anisotropic magnetoresistance (TAMR) in a thin (Ga,Mn)As epilayer with lateral nanoconstrictions. The observation establishes the generic nature of this effect, which originates from the spin-orbit coupling in a…

Mechanically bent nickel nanowires show clear features in their room temperature magnetoresistance when a domain wall is pinned at the location of the bend. By varying the direction of an applied magnetic field, the wire can be prepared…

We study electronic transport properties of ferromagnetic nanoparticle arrays and nanodomain materials near the Curie temperature in the limit of weak coupling between the grains. We calculate the conductivity in the Ohmic and non-Ohmic…

Nanoscale magnetic junction provides a useful approach to act as the building block for magnetoresistive random access memories (MRAM), where one of the key issues is to control the magnetic domain configuration. Here, we study the domain…

In this paper we show spin dependent transport experiments in nanoconstrictions ranging from 30 to 200nm. These nanoconstrictions were fabricated combining electron beam lithography and thin film deposition techniques. Two types of…

Integration of magneto-electric and spintronic sensors presents a massive potential for advancing flexible and wearable technology. Magnetic nanowires are core components for building such devices, and therefore it important to realize…

Electron transport limited by the rotating exchange-potential of domain walls is calculated in the ballistic limit for the itinerant ferromagnets Fe, Co, and Ni. When realistic band structures are used, the domain wall magnetoresistance is…
