Host: INRIM
Location: Torino, Italy
Supervisor: Gianfranco Durin
Scientific project:
Together with the position at USAL, this PhD position will complement the experimental projects of the consortium, focusing on the impact of the electrical fields on the phenomena occurring at the magnetic interfaces in nanostructures and multilayers. In particular, the goal is to understand the role of the electrical fields in changing the properties of the magnetic layer considering the effect of gate-induced charge accumulation, and of optical effects in case of all-optical control of magnetization and photo-induced strain. Theoretical analysis and simulations will consider these effects on the motion of domain walls and of skyrmion-bubbles. A general analysis of all the theoretical and experimental results obtained within the project will be performed using machine-learning and deep learning techniques.
The PhD student will be hosted at the INRIM Metrological Institute of Italy, and enrolled at the PhD in Physics of the Politecnico of Torino. At INRIM she/he will join the Magnetic Group which has a long tradition in the field of magnetism, and in particular in the study of the magnetization dynamics in bulk and nanostructures.
