Professor K. Kent conducts research focusing on spin dynamics within the realm of condensed matter physics. His work primarily involves thin film heterostructures and nanometer scale devices, addressing fundamental questions associated with magnetic interactions such as spin-angular momentum transport and detection in various types of nanostructures including ferromagnets, ferrimagnets, and antiferromagnets. His interests extend to the advancement of magnetic devices to enhance state-of-the-art semiconductor technology, especially in CMOS technology and the evolving fields of stochastic and neuromorphic computing. Utilizing nanofabrication techniques coupled with thin film deposition, he creates materials and magnetic devices that operate at lateral sizes under 100 nm. Examples of his research output include magnetic tunnel junction nanopillars and antiferromagnetic insulators, as well as studies related to ferrimagnetic racetracks that host magnetic skyrmions and explore phase transitions essential for memory and learning applications.
