Associate Professor
Research Interests: I am interested in the study of magnetic materials, and in particular magnetization dynamics in nanomaterials. In materials with nanometer scale dimensions the magnetization dynamics can be quite different than in bulk materials and are heavily influenced by the geometry of the structure. My research uses computer simulation to investigate the response of magnetic systems to applied fields. Recently this effort has focused on the injection and subsequent motion of a single and multiple magnetic domain walls in a nanowire with potential applications in magnetic recording, logic operations and sensors. Undergraduate physics majors at Marquette University have made substantial contributions to the research effort. For more information please keep reading.
