    Basic and applied research of properties of magnetic conductors (spintronics). The basic research includes the study of the behavior of the components of the transport tensor of ceramic magnetic conductors (perovskites), phenomena related to the interaction between spin-polarized current and the magnetization of the compound, and magnetization reversal in magnetic nanoparticles with emphasis on the detection of macroscopic quantum tunneling. The applied research includes the development of magnetic memory and magnetic sensors based of the group patents.
