In this paper, the scattering of a plane monochromatic electromagnetic wave from a nanowire with circular cross-section in the transverse electric (TE) mode is simulated using the well-known Stratton-Chu surface integral equations. For an ordinary dielectric nanowire the refraction phenomenon is nicely simulated. In the case of a plasmonic nanowire no sign of surface plasmon excitation and prop...

We study the effects of magnetic and electric fields on the g factors of spins confined in a two-electron InAs nanowire double quantum dot. Spin sensitive measurements are performed by monitoring the leakage current in the Pauli blockade regime. Rotations of single spins are driven using electric-dipole spin resonance. The g factors are extracted from the spin resonance condition as a function ...

CoFe/Cu multilayer nanowires were electrodeposited into anodic aluminum oxide templates prepared by a two-step mild anodization method, using the single-bath technique. Nanowires with 30 nm diameter and the definite lengths were obtained. The effect of CoFe layers thickness and annealing on the magnetic behavior of the multilayer nanowires was investigated. The layers thickness was controlled t...

Magnetic skyrmions are topologically protected nanoscale objects, which are promising building blocks for novel magnetic and spintronic devices. Here, we investigate the dynamics of a skyrmion driven by spin wave in magnetic nanowire. It is found that (i) the skyrmion is first accelerated and then decelerated exponentially, (ii) it can turn L-corners with both right and left turns, (iii) it alw...

The influence of pretreatment of AAO template and deposition process on magnetic NiCoFe nanowire fabricated by electroless method was investigated. The Electroless process carried out at room temperature using DMAB as a reductant agent. SEM and EDX analysis used to characterize the deposited sample. According to the results, sonication during deposition process is not recommended in fabrication...

Using first-principles density functional calculations, at both generalized gradient approximation GGA and GGA+U levels we have investigated the electronic structure and magnetic properties of Fe/Co codoped ZnO nanowire. Here we have addressed some of the key issues such as, the preferable sites that Fe/Co can occupy, the coupling mechanism, and role of defects in coupling. We found that the sp...

We consider tubular nanowires with a polygonal cross-section. In this geometry the lowest energy states are separated in two sets, one of corner and side-localized states, respectively. The presence an external magnetic field transverse to nanowire imposes additional localization mechanism, electrons being pushed sideways relatively direction field. This effect has important implications on cur...

Our recent work on the fabrication and properties of ordered elemental (Co, Fe) and alloy (Co1-xPtx) nanowire arrays embedded in anodic aluminium oxide (AAO) templates is reviewed. Nanowires with diameters from sub-micron to nano-metre have been fabricated using an electrodeposition technique. The nanowire array structure, crystallographic structure, magnetic properties, and magneto-optical pro...
