Research Themes +
Energy Technologies Area (ETA) researchers are continually building on the strong scientific foundation we have developed over the past 50 years. We address the world’s most pressing climate challenges by bringing to market energy-efficient innovations across the buildings, transportation, and industrial sectors. ETA is at the forefront of developing better batteries for electric vehicles; improving the country's aging electrical grid and innovating distributed energy and storage solutions; developing grid-interactive, efficient buildings; and providing the most comprehensive market and data analysis worldwide for renewable technologies like wind and solar.
Strategic Initiatives +
The Energy Technologies Area (ETA) Strategic Plan is the guiding force for our research and development for the next ten years. It clearly charts a path toward clean-energy solutions and focuses on five detailed Strategic Initiatives. The Plan provides an in-depth look at how ETA is accelerating research to provide affordable, clean energy to all while accomplishing deep, economy-wide decarbonization, looking to avoid a rise in global average temperature while simultaneously developing solutions to increase humanity's resilience to extreme weather volatility.

Abstract

We present the results of an investigation into ferrimagnetic resonance at room temperature in superlattice heterostructures with alternating layers of Y3Fe5O12 and EuBi2Fe 5O12 grown by pulsed-laser deposition. We find that in the Y3Fe5O12 layer, the spins always prefer to lie in the plane. In the EuBi2Fe5O12 layer, on the other hand, the spin direction switches from normal to the film plane to in-plane as its thickness falls below that of the Y3Fe 5O12 layer. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.
