<div class="moz-forward-container"><font face="Tahoma">In the
framework of DFG-funded project “Spin dynamics in laterally
patterned magnetic landscapes” we are looking for PhD candidate
for investigation of magnetization dynamics in nanostructures
with ferromagnetic/paramagnetic (FM/PM) interfaces.<br>
</font></div>
<div class="moz-forward-container"><font face="Tahoma"><br>
</font></div>
<div class="moz-forward-container"><b><font face="Tahoma">The tasks
of PhD student will include:</font></b></div>
<div class="moz-forward-container">
<ul>
<li><font face="Tahoma">Thin film fabrication using magnetron
sputtering, nanostructuring with electron beam lithography
and ion irradiation;</font></li>
<li><font face="Tahoma">Magnetic characterization using
magnetometry, magnetic microscopy imaging, micromagnetic
simulations;</font></li>
<li><font face="Tahoma">Ferromagnetic resonance study of thin
film bilayers and laterally patterned magnetic landscapes.</font><br>
</li>
</ul>
<font face="Tahoma">The three-year research program is to be
realized in collaboration with the University of Augsburg
(Germany) and the Technical Federal University Santa Maria
(Chile). We aim to understand the complex effect of structural
disorder-induced magnetization patterns on the dynamic magnetic
properties of embedded nanostructures with periodical FM/PM
interfaces, addressing multi-magnon scattering, spin pumping at
magnetic interfaces as well as various magnonic effects.</font></div>
<div class="moz-forward-container"><font face="Tahoma"><br>
</font></div>
<div class="moz-forward-container"><font face="Tahoma"><b>Profile:</b><br>
Master or equivalent degree in Physics with magnetism background
is required. Experience in thin film deposition, fabrication of
nanostructures as well as knowledge about ferromagnetic
resonance technique and magnetization dynamics in nanostructures
are advantageous (but not obligatory).<br>
