Major Scientific Advances:

Superconductor-ferromagnet-superconductor (SFS) Josephson junctions:

First experimental observation of superconducting current flow through a ferromagnet in a Josephson SFS junction (1999); experimental realization of the π-state in SFS systems (2000-2001); detection (in phase-sensitive experiments) of the inverse current-phase relation, spontaneous currents and magnetic flux in superconducting curcuits with π-junctions (2002-2008), realization of a novel type of Josephson magnetic switch (2012-2013).
