Main research topics

Magnetism of nano-objects Our activities are focused on the study of size reduction effects on magnetic properties, such as spin and orbital contributions, anisotropy, and ordering temperature by measurements of magnetization, ferromagnetic resonance, XMCD, Mössbauer.
Applications in nanomedecine and energy storage Magnetic nanoparticles may be used for the destruction of cancer cells, when subjected to a high-frequency magnetic field, a phenomenon known as magnetic hyperthermia.
Electronic properties and magnetoresistance Our overall goal in this topic is the study of the transport and magnetotransport properties of chemically-synthesized objects in order to evaluate their properties in spintronics.
