CMP's Vision Statement

Condensed Matter Physics is one of the largest, most diverse and dynamic fields in modern physics, encompassing all aspects of the solid and liquids states of matter. This breadth is reflected in the research undertaken at 淫乱色情片 which spans a wide range of subjects from light emitting polymers and solar cell materials to nanoscale magnetics. Our work aims to push forward the forefront of our understanding in the physics of materials using experiment, theory and computation.

淫乱色情片 research highlighted by U.S. Department of Energy’s Advanced Photon Source (APS) at Argonne National Laboratory

Collaborative international research on spin transport aimed at energy efficient spintronics led by Condensed Matter Physics at 淫乱色情片 has been recognised as a Science Highlight for work involving X-ray experiments at the Advanced Photon Source synchrotron facility.
The research demonstrates that efficient interfacial spin transport depends on the proximity-induced-magnetism in 鈥渘on-magnetic鈥 heavy metal layers within spintronic multilayers.
