08.11.2024 Tobias Wagner succesfully defends his PhD thesis
We congratulate our colleague Tobias Wagner, who successfully defended his PhD on "Interface Effects in Antiferromagnetic-Ferromagnetic Hybrid Systems". He there studied how domains, topological structures and dynamics are connected in systems of antiferromagnets and ferromagnets grown on each other. His work lead to multiple publications, namely
Imprinting of Antiferromagnetic Vortex States in NiO-Fe Nanostructures
Revealing the ultra-fast domain wall motion in Mn2Au through permalloy capping
Coupling of ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic spin dynamics in Mn2Au/NiFe thin-film bilayers.
01.03.2024 EU funding for outstanding early-career researcher Pieter Gunnink
We are proudly announcing that Pieter Gunnink has been awarded an individual fellowship provided through the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions program, which supports the Mainz physicist to carry out a new research project in the field of spintronics. Please read the original press statement here.
27.10.2023 V.K. Bharadwaj successfully defends his PhD Thesis
We congratulate our colleague V.K. Bharadwaj, who successfully defended his PhD on "Magnetic skyrmions in in-plane magnets". In his studies, he investigated the stability, curent dynamics and excitations of magnetic skyrmions, which amongst others led to a publication in Physical Review B.
