Ezekiel Johnston-Halperin

Johnston-Halperin's research focuses on exploring the emergent phenomena that appear at interfaces, both literal and metaphorical. On the literal side, he is exploring magnetism and spin transport at the interface between magnetically ordered or spin polarized materials and nonmagnetic metals and semiconductors. This physical interface gives rise to phenomena not present in homogeneous bulk systems ranging from traditional spin injection, to magnetic-resonance driven spin pumping, to spin-thermal effects such as the spin Seebeck effect. Taking a more metaphorical view, he is also interested in the interface between Physics and Chemistry, in particular the study of magnetism and magnetic resonance in organic-based magnetic materials.
