Brock University Master of Science in Materials Physics students are unlocking the next generation of computing technology one beam at a time by measuring magnetic materials at the nano level as part of their studies relevant to spintronics. Brock Assistant Professor of Physics Gavin Hester (not pictured) and Graduate Laboratory Supervisor Sara Monfared (second from left) led a group of graduate students at the Canadian Neutron and Positron Beam Laboratory — housed at the McMaster Nuclear Reactor in Hamilton, with access made possible through a Canada Foundation for Innovation grant received by Brock earlier this year. McMaster Associate Professor of Physics and Astronomy Pat Clancy (left) offered guidance with the neutron diffraction measurements.
