We review the details of domain wall (DW) propagation due to spin-polarized currents that could potentially be used in magnetic data storage devices based on domains and DWs. We discuss briefly the basics of the underlying spin torque effect and show how t ...
A detailed zero-and transverse-field muon spin rotation investigation of magnetism and the magnetoelectric coupling in Cu2OSeO3 is reported. An internal magnetic field B-int(T = 0) = 85.37(25) mT was found, in agreement with a ferrimagnetic state below T-c ...
The magnetic structures adopted by the Fe and Sm sublattices in SmFeAsO have been investigated using element-specific x-ray resonant and nonresonant magnetic scattering techniques. Between 110 and 5 K, the Sm and Fe moments are aligned along the c and a di ...
We developed a non-lithographic technique to contact sub-100 nm nanowires for spin transfer torque experiments. Co/Cu multilayers were grown by electrodeposition in nanoporous commercial polycarbonate membranes from a Co/Cu bath. A home-made sample holder ...
Several geometries have recently been proposed for spin-transfer oscillators, with the purpose of optimizing the output power and the frequency dependence on the applied current, as well as minimizing the external magnetic field required to stabilize magne ...

We performed high-field magnetization measurements, M(H), on the Ni-5(TeO3)(4)Br-2 by using a pulse magnet. The Ni2+ ions (S = 1) of this compound form a two dimensional distorted spin frustrated system (distorted kagome lattice), and undergo a Neel transi ...
In this thesis we study the electronic structure of different two-dimensional (2D) electron systems with angular resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). This technique is based on the photoelectric effect and directly probes the electronic structure o ...
We report on low temperature current induced domain wall depinning experiments on (Co/Pt) multilayer nanowires with perpendicular magnetization. Using a special experimental scheme, we are able to extract the different contributions of the Oersted field an ...
In this thesis we make use of the Spin Transfer Torque effect from a continuous microwave current to induce and study the spin dynamics of an individual sub-100 nm nanostructure. The idea that an electrical current can carry a spin angular momentum was int ...
We discuss two different approaches for tuning the giant spin-orbit splitting of a BiAg2 surface alloy. The first approach consists of electron doping by alkaline metal deposition in order to shift the energy position of the spin-split surface states, whil ...
