Rate My Professor Fengyuan Yang

Yang's research centers on novel magnetism and spintronics in epitaxial oxide films, encompassing spin pumping in Y₃Fe₅O₁₂-based structures, interfacial spin-orbit coupling, topological spin textures, Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions, and electrical switching of antiferromagnetic Néel order in materials like α-Fe₂O₃. Notable publications include "Magnetic shape memory polymers with integrated multifunctional shape manipulation" (Advanced Materials, 2020), "Scaling of Spin Hall Angle in 3d, 4d, and 5d Metals from Y₃Fe₅O₁₂/Metal Spin Pumping" (Physical Review Letters, 2014), "Large magnetoresistance of electrodeposited single-crystal bismuth thin films" (Science, 1999), "Determination of the Spin Polarization of Half-Metallic CrO₂ by Point Contact Andreev Reflection" (Physical Review Letters, 2001), "Antiferromagnonic spin transport from Y₃Fe₅O₁₂ into NiO" (Physical Review Letters, 2014), "Electrical Switching of Tri-State Antiferromagnetic Néel Order in α-Fe₂O₃ Epitaxial Films" (Physical Review Letters, 2020), and "Evidence of the Topological Hall Effect in Pt/Antiferromagnetic Insulator Bilayers" (Physical Review Letters, 2019). His work has advanced understanding of spin transport phenomena in ferrimagnetic insulators and antiferromagnets.
