Theoretical investigation on fundamentally/technologically important perovskite-like oxides

First-principles (ab-initio) calculations allow studies of properties of solids on the fundamental level. The electronic structure determines most physical properties of a solid. Such calculations became enormously enhanced by Density Functional Theory (D FT). They involve crystal structure data ...

Manipulation of individual flux quanta in superconductors: an essential step towards "fluxtronics"

By this project we will explore the possibilities to manipulate superconducting vortices - the quantum mechanical entities that carry the magnetic field inside superconductors. In the same way as charge of an electron form the basis of electronics, can on e see that in the future the flux quanta,...

Timing and genetic significance of AMCG suites in the Norwegian Caledonides and their role in defining paleolinks between displaced terranes

Anorthosite-mangerite-charnockite-granite (AMCG) suites are a widespread component of Proterozoic crust. In Norway they are prominently represented in both autochthonous basement units. AMCG suites are formed by complex petrogenetic processes initiated at the crust-mantle boundary and, therefore...
