Vertically Aligned Nanocomposite Thin Films for Micro-Battery and Nanoionic Applications
… areas and shortened ion diffusion path lengths. Vertically aligned nanocomposite (VAN) films, an example of a thin film 3D architecture, have shown promise in solid oxide fuel cells devices displaying enhanced ionic conductivity, reduced areal surface resistances and improved cell performance by …

Voltage Control of Magnetism in Novel Structured Vertically Aligned Nanocomposite Thin Films
This thesis investigates voltage control of magnetism (VCM) in novel structured VAN thin films. Both magneto-ionic (MI) and magnetoelectric (ME) systems were studied. Magneto-ionic devices, which utilise voltage-driven ion migration to control magnetic properties, hold promise for energy-efficient, …

New ways to tune the multi-functionality of oxide thin films for memory applications
… magnetic properties in oxide thin films using vertically-aligned nanocomposites (VAN). The works aim to enhance their multi-functionality for various memory applications. First, electroforming-free resistive switching (RS) with high ON/OFF ratio is realized in a novel model VAN system based on …
