http://ndl.ee.ucr.edu/

Dr. Balandin's research is in phonon engineering and thermal conductivity in nanostructures. In particular, he works on the Raman spectroscopy and thermal conductivity measurements. He also works on the theoretical modeling of phonon thermal conductivity in nanostructured materials and devices.

Prof. Igor Barsukov

Dr. Igor Barsukov, UC Riverside

igor.barsukov@ucr.edu
(951) 827-5343
https://barsukov.ucr.edu/

Dr. Barsukov's group work in the field of experimental condensed matter physics with a focus on spintronics. We design and probe magnetic nanoscale heterosructures and devices. Employing spectroscopic methods in the regimes of low frequecies, microwave and terahertz frequencies, we study spin dynamics and spin transport.
