About CSB:

Center for Spintronics and Biodetection conducts research on the frontiers of electron spin transport, pure spin currents, coherent spin dynamics, and spin-dependent noise in multilayered nanostructures consisting of ferromagnets, metals, insulators, and semiconductors. In addition, spintronic devices are also investigated as elements of sensors for biomolecules (nucleic acids and proteins). CSB research facilities are located at the University of Delaware and Brown University, while its funding comes from the Department of Energy and the State of Delaware.

CSB External Advisory Board: S. Bader (Argonne), W. H. Butler (MINT Center Alabama), T. Tritt (Clemson), and L. Whitman (NRL).

CSB Director:

Prof. John Q. Xiao, Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Delaware
