Studies of magnetic materials on the nanometre and atomic scale. This work will performed within a framework of European research projects involving laboratories and industries, leaders in the field. Funding for the project is available. Studies of surfaces of magnetic oxides.
Magnetic oxides are highly important materials for the future of spin electronic devices.
Surfaces of most oxides are highly complex. Studies of surfaces of many oxides on atomic scale are still at the infancy. This is an experimental project dedicated to studies of surfaces of magnetic oxides. The project will involve studies of single crystalline surfaces and also surfaces of thin films of oxides grown by molecular beam epitaxy. Some of the instrumentation will be developed by the student specifically for the project.
