In a combined numerical and experimental study, we demonstrate that current pulses of
different polarity can reversibly and controllably displace a magnetic domain wall (DW) in …

Electrical currents flowing in ferromagnetic materials are spin-polarised as a result of the
spin-dependent band structure. When the spatial direction of the polarisation changes, in a …

High harmonic generation (HHG) spectroscopy has opened up a new frontier in ultrafast
science, where electronic dynamics can be measured on an attosecond time scale. The …

We present an experimental study of domain wall motion induced by current pulses as well
as by conventional magnetic fields at temperatures between 2 and 300 K in a 110 nm wide …

Few books exist that cover the hot field of second-generation spintronic devices, despite
their potential to revolutionize the IT industry. Compiling the obstacles and progress of spin …

We present and review an efficient method to calculate the retarded Greenʼs function in
multi-terminal nanostructures; which is needed in order to calculate the conductance …

We numerically study two methods of measuring tunneling times using a quantum clock. In
the conventional method using the Larmor clock, we show that the Larmor tunneling time …

Decoherent transport in mesoscopic and nanoscopic systems can be formulated in terms of
the D'Amato–Pastawski (DP) model. This generalizes the Landauer–Büttiker picture by …

We have studied the magnetotransport properties of thin films of the Heusler compounds Cu
2 MnAl, Co 2 MnGe, and Co 2 MnSi prepared by sputtering on substrates at room …

In this work we show the existence of closure domains in Fe 0.8 Ga 0.2 thin films featuring a
striped magnetic pattern and study the effect of the magnetic domain arrangement on the …
