Nanomagnetism and Magnetization processes Group

The GNMP is an interdisciplinary group focused on the experimental and theoretical study of magnetic nanostructures and their magnetization reversal processes. The group is worldwide pioneer in the magnetic nanowire topic. As an example, complex domain structures are observed in modulated in diameter nanowires and in multilayered nanowires. New research lines include the dynamics in magnetic nanostructures under magnetic fields, electrical current, radio frequency or temperature. Another key topic of the group is the use of the Magnetic Force Microscopy and X-ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism XMCD-PEEM to visualize the magnetization reversal process at the nanoscale. It’s remarkable their experience in atomistic and micromagnetic modelling of magnetic nanostructures, ultra-fast magnetization and thermal effects. Moreover, it’s very active in the fabrication of microwire-based sensors in collaboration with different companies.
