X-ray absorption (XAS) and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) spectra at the L$_{2,3}$ edges of Mn in (Ge,Mn) compounds have been measured and are compared to the results of first principles calculation. Early \textit{ab initio}…
In this paper, we report the experimental observation of diffraction patterns in a ferrofluid comprising of Fe3O4 nanoparticles in hexane by a 10 mW He-Ne laser beam. An external dc magnetic field (0-2 kG) was applied perpendicular to the…
Utilizing spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy, we found coexistence of perpendicularly and in-plane magnetized cobalt nanoscale islands on the Ag(111) surface, and the relationship between the moire corrugation…
X ray resonant magnetic scattering (XRMS) was used to characterize the magnetization of 2D arrays of trilayer submicron magnets. The interpretation of the data required the understanding of the morphology of the magnets which was also…
Using spin-polarized low-energy electron microscopy to study magnetization in epitaxial layered systems, we found that the area vs perimeter relationship of magnetic domains in the top Fe layers of Fe/NiO/Fe(100) structures follows a…
The thesis discusses micromagnetic simulation studies on high-frequency magnetic dynamics in three-dimensional ferromagnetic nanoarchitectures made of interconnected magnetic nanowire networks. Such artificial magnetic materials with…
Proximity effects allow for the adjustment of magnetic properties in a physically elegant way. If two thin ferromagnetic (FM) films are brought into contact, electronic coupling alters their magnetic exchange interaction at their interface.…
We consider a simple model of maghemite nanoparticles and study their magnetic properties using Monte Carlo methods. The particles have a spherical geometry with diameters ranging from 3 nm to 8 nm. The interior of the particles consists of…
We calculate the average polarisability of two dimensional mesoscopic rings in the presence of an Aharonov-Bohm flux. The screening is taken into account self-consistently within a mean-field approximation. We investigate the effects of…
Disorder-induced spectral correlations of mesoscopic quantum systems in the non-diffusive regime and their effect on the magnetic susceptibility are studied. We perform impurity averaging for non-translational invariant systems by combining…
Neutron scattering techniques are used to investigate the crystalline and magnetic structure of LuFe$_{0.75}$Mn$_{0.25}$O$_{3}$ in bulk polycrystalline form. We find that the crystalline structure is described by the hexagonal P6$_{3}$cm…
Magnetic cooling has the potential to replace conventional gas compression refrigeration. Materials such as La(Fe,Si)$_{13}$ exhibit a sizeable first-order magnetocaloric effect, and it is possible to tailor the phase transition towards…
The angle-resolved inner-shell photoionization of R-trifluoromethyloxirane, C3H3F3O, is studied experimentally and theoretically. Thereby, we investigate the photoelectron circular dichroism (PECD) for nearly-symmetric O 1s and F 1s…
The magnetic structures of small clusters of Fe, Mn, and Cr supported on a Cu(111) surface have been studied with non-collinear first principles theory. Different geometries such as triangles, pyramids and wires are considered and the…

The dense vortex matter structure and associated magnetization are calculated for type-II superconducting mesoscopic disks. The magnetization exhibits generically first-order phase transitions as the number of vortices changes by one and…
To investigate structure-property correlations, high-coercivity MnxGa nanoparticles were synthesized by the method of sequential deposition of Ga and Mn fluxes using molecular beam epitaxy. Spontaneous nanostructuring was assisted by the…
