Summary:

Investigation of the origin of nonuniform superconductivity in layered SF-nanostructures, caused by interplay of superconductivity and ferromagnetism, to employ the knowledge, gained from investigations of SF-bilayers, F/S/F and S/F/S trilayers to design a superconducting spintronic device, - spin switch.
