ULTRAFAST PHONON AND SPIN DYNAMICS STUDIES IN MAGNETIC HETEROSTRUCTURE SYSTEMS

Since the discovery of giant magnetoresistance (GMR), the spin of the electron has attracted significant interest in the field of microelectronics. Spintronics, which involves manipulating both quantum spin states of electrons and their charge states, promises a wide variety of applications in stora...
