For magnonics and spintronics applications, the spin polarization ($P$) of a transport current and the magnetic damping ($\alpha$) play a crucial role, e.g. for magnetization dynamics and magnetization switching applications. In particular,…
We demonstrated that dipole-exchange spin waves traveling in geometrically restricted magnetic thin films satisfy the same laws of reflection and refraction as light waves. Moreover, we found for the first time novel wave behaviors of…
Strong magnetic field pulses associated with a relativistic electron bunch can imprint switching patterns in magnetic thin films that have uniaxial in-plane anisotropy. In experiments with Fe and FeCo alloy films the pattern shape reveals…
The behavior of ferroelectricity at the nanoscale is the focus of increasing research activity because of intense interest in the fundamental nature of spontaneous order in condensed-matter systems and because of the many practical…
The total magnetic energy of Lithium ferrite thin films was determined using the classical Heisenberg Hamiltonian. The short range magnetic dipole interactions between spins within one unit cell and the interactions between spins in two…
Spin-echo instruments are typically used to measure diffusive processes and the dynamics and motion in samples on ps and ns timescales. A key aspect of the spin-echo technique is to determine the polarisation of a particle beam. We present…
Strain-mediated magnetoelectric (ME) heterostructures enable electric-field control of magnetism and are promising for ultra-low-power spintronic logic. Yet achieving spatially selective, low-voltage control in thin films and quantifying ME…
The magnetic properties of thin-film multilayers [Fe/Py]/FeMn/Py are investigated as a function of temperature and thickness of the antiferromagnetic FeMn spacer using SQUID magnetometry. The observed behavior differs substantially for the…
We have measured the optical reflectivity $R(\omega)$ of $Eu_{0.6}Ca_{0.4}B_{6}$ as a function of temperature between 1.5 and 300 $K$ and in external magnetic fields up to 7 $T$. The slope at the onset of the plasma edge feature in…
Orientation dependent electronic properties of wurtzite zinc oxide nanorods are characterized by aloof beam electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) carried out in a scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM). The two key crystal…
Nonlinear current-voltage characteristics and magnetoresistance of point contacts between a normal metal (N) and films of amorphous ferromagnet (F) Co40Fe40B20 of different thickness, exchange-biased by antiferromagnetic Mn80Ir20 are…
Measurements of the reflectivity of a 2-D electron gas are used to deduce the polarization of the Composite Fermion hole system formed for Landau level occupancies in the regime 1<\nu<2. The measurements are consistent with the formation of…
We have studied the magneto-optical Kerr effect and optical reflectance of perpendicular magnetized Co/Pt films on self-assembly two-dimensional polystyrene spheres. It is shown that the magneto-optical and the reflectance spectra are…
We investigated the magnetization dynamics of a patterned Co$_{25}$Fe$_{75}$-based heterostructure with a novel optical measurement technique that we call microfocused frequency-resolved magneto optic Kerr effect ($\mu$FR-MOKE). We measured…
We present a study of the Andreev reflections in superconductor/ferromagnet nanostructured point contacts. The experimental data are analyzed in the frame of a model with two spin-dependent transmission coefficients for the majority and…
Magnetic domain structure and spin-dependent reflectivity measurements on cobalt thin films intercalated at the graphene / Ir(111) interface are investigated using spin-polarised low-energy electron microscopy. We find that graphene-covered…
The problem of electron resonant and non-resonant scatterings on two magnetized barriers is studied in the one-dimension. The transfer-matrix is built up to exactly calculate the coefficient of the electron transmittance through the system…
We have measured resonant soft x-ray diffuse magnetic scattering as a function of temperature in a positively exchange biased Co/FeF2 bilayer and analyzed the data in the distorted wave Born approximation to obtain in-plane charge and…
The energy relaxation in the spin-polarized disordered electron systems is studied in the diffusive regime. We derived the quantum kinetic equation in which the kernel of electron-electron collision integral explicitly depends on the…
