Offered Bachelor’s or Master’s Theses Topics

Ferromagnetische Resonanzmessungen bis 65 GHz
In this project we would like to extend the frequency range for ferromagnetic resonance experiments in an existing set-up to 65 GHz. Test measurements will be performed on selected thin film ferromagnets.

Kontrolle der Spin-Orbit-Torques in ultradünnen Fe/Pt Bi-Lagen durch elektrische Felder
Spin-Orbit-Torques (SOTs) which can be used to manipulate the magnetization of thin ferromagnetic layers can be generated at interfaces to heavy metals such as Platinum. In this thesis we will attempt to modify the strength and direction of SOTs in thin bi-layers of Pt and Fe.

Untersuchung des "Flachbandmagnetismus" in dem magnetischen Weyl-Halbmetall CoSnS
A recent scanning tunneling microscopy experiment (Nature Physics 15, 443 (2019))shows the existence of an orbital magnetic moment in the magnetic Weyl semimetal CoSnS. Such orbital magnetism originates from the kinetically frustrated Kagome flat band in this (and other) material and is purely a quantum mechanical effect. We expect that this orbital magnetic moment can be detected by the electron spin resonance technique, and the experimental results will be compared with theoretical calculations.
