Research Projects

There is a strong need for better technologies in today’s world for data storage and energy harvesting along with some devices with better performance. Heusler alloys can make these technolgical requirements into reality if one can understand the topology in these class of compounds along with magnetic properties. Various topological features along with SOC strength in Heusler alloys will be explored to better understand the different mechanisms such as large anomalous Hall conductivities, large Nernst conductivities, giant mobilities, magnetothermopower, enhanced Kerr rotation and giant magnetoresistance in these compounds which may be the key parameters in future spintronic technologies such as thermoelectric generators for future energy harvesting, quantum information, control to dissipationless spin, magneto-optic readout memory devices etc.
