Nanosystems ERC for Translational Applications of Nanoscale Multiferroic Systems

The Nanosystems ERC for Translational Applications of Nanoscale Multiferroic Systems (TANMS) is a multi-institutional (UCLA, UC-Berkeley, Cornell, and Cal State-Northridge) Engineering Research Center focusing on research, technology translation, and education associated with magnetism on the small scale. TANMS’ vision is to develop a fundamentally new approach coupling electricity to magnetism using engineered nanoscale multiferroic elements to enable increased energy efficiency, reduced physical size, and increased power output in consumer electronics. This new nanoscale multiferroic approach overcomes the scaling limitations present in the century-old mechanism for controlling magnetism that was originally discovered by Oersted in 1820. TANMS’ goal is to translate its research discoveries on nanoscale multiferroics to industrial innovations.
