About

Magnetic materials offer a plethora of functional properties that are not only of fundamental interest but are essential for the development of new technological applications. The aim of the group is to build a strong experimental research environment dedicated to the investigation of the electronic properties of a broad range of magnetic materials and phenomena. The research line will develop experimental and theoretical knowledge on magnetic materials in particular when placed under extreme conditions such as high pressures, low temperatures and high magnetic fields. A special interest will be given to material relevant to energy applications.

Mission:

The primary goal is to establish a prominent and dynamic experimental research line that will vigorously study magnetic materials under extreme conditions including high pressure and related topics at University of Sharjah, in the UAE, and in the Gulf Countries. The research line will be the only one in the region, competing and collaborating with the active research line throughout the world, where high pressure on high quality single superconducting materials is not well developed in the UoS.

Objectives:

• Explore different materials, including traditional elemental superconductors, as well as complex compounds and engineered nanostructures, in order to identify materials with superior superconducting properties
• Discover or design materials that exhibit superconductivity at higher temperatures
• Unravel the mechanisms responsible 5 for the lossless flow of electrical current in SC materials.
• Form the first generation of Magnetic material developers in the UAE.
• Develop practical applications that harness the unique properties of superconducting materials.

Lines of Research

• Large scale synthesis of Magnetic superconducting materials
• Room Temperature Ferromagnetism
• Towards understanding the Physics behind superconductivity
• Superconductivity and Magnetism in various materials, coexist, cooperate or compete
