KurzbeschreibungFerromagnetism: from Thin Films to Spintronics
LernzielKnowing the most important concepts and applications of ferromagnetism, in particular on the nanoscale (thin films, small structures). Being able to read and understand scientific articles at the front of research in this area. Learn to know how and why a hard disk functions. Learn to condense and present the results of a research articles so that the colleagues understand.
InhaltShort revisit of some fundamental terms from the “Magnetism: From the atom to the solid state" lecture.
Topics: magnetization curves, magnetic domains, magnetic anisotropy; novel effects in ultrathin magnetic films and multilayers: interlayer exchange, spin transport;
magnetization dynamics, spin precession.
Applications: Magnetic data storage, magnetic memories, spin-based electronics, also called spintronics.
SkriptSkripte werden in Vorlesung abgegeben (Skript in Englisch).
Voraussetzungen / BesonderesLanguage: English, or German if all students agree.
