A researcher in spintronics whose review with Daniel Lacour relates electrical resistance to the magnetic configuration of layered devices. A magnetic tunnel junction consists of two magnetic conductors separated by a thin insulating barrier; quantum tunnelling through the barrier depends on the electronic states available for each electron spin. This produces tunnelling magnetoresistance, illustrating how the magnetic state of a device can be read through an electrical measurement.[ref]
