Description

This course explores electrical transport in devices whose nanoscale dimensions play a key role in dictating their functionality.

It focuses on the physical principles underpinning their operation, as well as details of their application.

The course is divided into three parts (taught by different lecturers), each dedicated to a distinct class of devices: electronic, spintronic and superconducting devices. The first part focuses on magnetism in thin films and spintronics; the second focuses on Josephson junctions; the third focuses on transport in low-dimensional systems such as nanoscale FETs, 2DEGs and nanomaterials
