Computational design of hetero-chiral magnonics.

Magnetic heterostructures where the chiral interaction is spatially modulated will be investigated to see if they can be used to transport and process magnons. Similarly to photons, magnons are wavelike particles that can propagate through magnetic materials. This could lead to a completely new class of the information processing devices. Our approach will be based on of state-of-the-art numerical micromagnetic simulations on Graphical Processing Units (GPU's).
