The overall objective of this sub-line of research is the study of physics in mesoscopic hybrid nanostructures based on the following types:

• Superconducting / Magnetic
• Magnetic / Non Magnetic
• Magnetic / Magnetic
• Magnetic / Semiconductor

 Research is focused on the following fields:

• Antiferromagnetic coupling and tailoring of magnetic anisotropy in nanostructures, films, and multilayers.
• Novel experimental techniques to fabricate and analyze nanostructured hybrid systems.
• Ratchet and pinning effects in magnetic and superconducting 2D systems.
• Proximity and interface effects in ferromagnetic/semiconductor (F/SM) hybrid nanostructures
• Resonance effects in noble metal/ferromagnet (NM/F) hybrid nanostructures and multilayers.
