  PhD: Thermal effects in nano-structured magnetic structures

  Exeter, United Kingdom

  Yearly income :

  Description of the offer :Project description In two-phase permanent magnets (Balamurugan et al. 2012) the presence of a soft magnetic phase improves the thermal stability of the remanent magnetization and increases the energy product (Bance, et al. APL 2014, Hrkac, et al. Scripta 2014). Nano-structuring provides a strong enough exchange coupling between the different phases so that coercive field is sufficiently high, in order to achieve energy products of 400 kJ/m3 at 450 K. A major problem is to find suitable structural stable binary [...]

  PhD: Optical detection of magnetization dynamics induced by spin-orbit torques

  Exeter, United Kingdom

  Yearly income : £14296

  Description of the offer :The injection of electrical current into multilayered magnetic materials can generate spin-orbit torques (SOTs) capable of modifying the magnetic state. The use of SOTs provides new opportunities for writing data in magnetic random access memory (MRAM), exciting precession in spin transfer oscillators (STOs), and driving magnetic objects such as domain walls, vortices and skyrmions. However, the contribution made by different underlying microscopic mechanisms, such as the spin Hall and Rashba effects, to the [...]
