09.03.2018 – Combined SPEX and DFT study on the surface reconstruction of 2Fe/Ir(111)

The study of Melanie and Bertrand Dupé on "Revealing the correlation between real-space structure and chiral magnetic order at the atomic scale" has just been published in Physical Review B as Rapid Communication. This work is a collaboration with the the Scanning Probe Microscopy Group of Alexander A. Khajetoorians at the Radboud University in Nijmegen, The Netherlands.

07.03.2018 – Sinova meets up with friend from the DFG and AvH at the March Meeting in LA

Jairo Sinova met up with the representatives of the DFG and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation at the APS March Meeting in LA - putting on the Humboldt bowtie was the biggest challenge of the meeting.

06.03.2018 – Isolated skyrmions stabilized at low fields

Marie Hervé, Bertrand Dupé, Rafael Lopes, Marie Böttcher, Maximiliano D. Martins, Timofey Balashov, Lukas Gerhard, Jairo Sinova, Wulf Wulfhekel

05.03.2018 – Standing room only at the March Meeting talk on Antiferromagnetic Spintronics

The talk by Jairo Sinova at the APS March Meeting in LA overflowed into the corridor - a larger room would have helped, but the interest in the field is clear.
