This review presents an overview of the thermal properties of mesoscopic structures. The
discussion is based on the concept of electron energy distribution, and, in particular, on …

Magnetoresistive (MR) sensors have been identified as promising candidates for the
development of high-performance magnetometers due to their high sensitivity, low cost, low …

We describe a new effect in semiconductor spintronics that leads to dissipationless spin
currents in paramagnetic spin-orbit coupled systems. We argue that in a high-mobility two …

Some of the most relevant finite-size and surface effects in the magnetic and transport
properties of magnetic fine particles and granular solids are reviewed. The stability of the …

Exchange biased magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) structures are shown to have useful
properties for forming magnetic memory storage elements in a novel cross-point …

The features and mechanism of Colossal Magnetoresistance, or CMR, in manganese oxides
as well as device physics are highlighted in this book, with a focus on tunneling MR for some …

We review the recent developments in the electric field control of magnetism in multiferroic
heterostructures, which consist of heterogeneous materials systems where a …

The discovery of enhanced magnetoresistance and oscillatory interlayer exchange coupling
in transition metal multilayers just over a decade ago has enabled the development of new …

In the past few years, magnetoelectronics has emerged as a promising new platform
technology in various biosensors for detection, identification, localisation and manipulation …
