The Micro- and NanoMagnetism team works in two main scientific directions, sharing a common experimental and conceptual expertise. The first one is dedicated to the investigation and engineering of functional properties occurring in nanostructured magnetic materials, with special attention paid to their integration in devices for energy and biology related applications. The second one is focused on the study of micromagnetic configurations in thin films and nanostructures, together with their manipulation using magnetic and electric fields or electrical currents.

Identifying and developing approaches to interface quantum devices with noisy, external room-temperature electronics represents a great scientific challenge, with major implications for technological sovereignty. Magnetic insulators find unrivalled applications in microwave components used inside cryostats to interconnect quantum devices and room-temperature electronics without letting thermal noise flow back into the quantum system. Present magnetic devices are bulky and suffer from the relatively weaker effort devoted to ferromagnetic resonance occurring at cryogenic temperatures, relevant to quantum information and computation.
Relying on magnetron sputtering deposition, X-ray diffraction, cryogenic SQUID magnetometry, optical (Brillouin) magnetic spectroscopy and magnetization dynamic experiments, this Master’s thesis project will integrate into our research aiming to improve the synthesis of magnetic insulators to unlock unique magnetic properties at low temperatures.

The generation and detection of pure spin currents usually involves heavy materials with strong spin-orbit coupling, which are expensive and rare. It has recently been realized that the orbital angular momentum of electrons in light elements can be favorably exploited to reduce the energy consumption of spintronic devices, opening up a whole new field of exploration. Such orbital currents can be efficiently generated in materials without any heavy elements, and preliminary experimental results demonstrate a substantial reduction in the energy required to operate many kinds of magnetic devices.
This Master’s thesis project aims to disentangle spin and orbital dynamics in spin-orbit torque devices, based on magneto-transport experiments and microwave spectroscopy of magnetic nanodevices. This project can be pursued as a PhD for a motivated candidate.

One of the challenges arising to translate spintronics from 2D to 3D is the ability to synthesis spintronic stacks on structures with variable shape and curvature, with a structural and electric quality similar to that of planar stacks.
