Materials & Devices
Yunume Fitchorova | Lab Manager
The Materials and Device (M&D) Lab at Kostas Research Institute (KRI) is a multidisciplinary lab with a wide range of materials and device experts focusing on the development of next-generation technologies in the areas of magnetism (magnetic materials and magnetic-based devices) and energy storage materials. The M&D Lab nurtures a collaborative environment whereby Northeastern University faculty and KRI LLC personnel work together with both the commercial sector and the Department of Defense (DoD) contractors and system integrators to promote the transfer of innovative research to the end users.
The M&D laboratory is fully equipped with state-of-the-art and one-of-a-kind equipment for the development and precise characterization of high-performance advanced materials (including soft and hard/permanent magnets, magnetic alloys and self-biased ferrites in powder, thin and bulk film and ceramics forms, energy storage materials) as well as magnetic-based devices.
