A method for contactlessly determining an exact passage of an athlete at points placed along a track in sports, wherein the method comprises gearing the athlete with a wearable magnetometer sensor unit, whereby the magnetometer sensor unit is equipped with ...
Skyrmions, topologically protected vortex-like nanometric spin textures in magnets, have been attracting increasing attention for emergent electromagnetic responses and possible technological applications for spintronics. In particular, metallic magnets wi ...
An anisotropic magnetic nanocomposite has been prepared by incorporating magnetite nanoparticles (average size: 19nm) in titania (TiO2) particles with a typical size of about 100nm, which are sub- sequently dispersed in a liquid epoxy monomer cured under a ...
We present a novel, simple and highly efficient protocol for the extraction of magnetic particles out of individual droplets on a digital lab-on-chip in the presence of a spatially fixed magnet with a permanent magnetic field. In this approach, the particl ...
Shape shifting soft microrobots are generated from self-folding hydrogel bilayer structures. The folding conditions are analyzed to develop an optimal strategy for producing desired three-dimensional shapes. We present two different methods for programming ...
A magnetic angle sensor is a matched combination of a permanent magnet, affixed to a rotating shaft, and a magnetic field sensor. The magnet part of the angle sensors is configured so as to create either a magnetic field with an angle-dependent component p ...

Double perovskite oxides A(2)BB'O-6 combining 3d and 4d or 5d transition metal ions at the B and B' sites feature a variety of magnetic and magneto-electric properties. Targeting Ba2FeOsO6, we synthesized powder samples of nonstoichiometric Ba2Fe1.12Os0.88 ...
Functionally Graded Materials (FGM) are a class of materials in which the composition and the properties gradually change over the volume. The present PhD project aims to generate a full understanding of a novel synthetic strategy for polymeric FGMs based ...
In order to mimic the complex architecture of many bio-materials and synthesize composites characterized by continuously graded composition and mechanical properties, an innovative synthetic strategy making use of magnetic field gradients and based on the ...
In this thesis, we present development of the first magnetic model of the main Proton Synchrotron magnets. The operation of the machine and conducting research on increasing its performance require a significant amount of the magnetic field data for the op ...
