  2. 1. Magnetic Order in Artificial Structures

    Author : Unnar B. Arnalds; Björgvin Hjörvarsson; Sveinn Ólafsson; Vassilios Kapaklis; Hartmut Zabel; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The topic of this thesis is the investigation of the magnetic properties of artificially created magnetic structures. Applying different characterization techniques, ranging from direct imaging methods to reciprocal space techniques, the properties of lithographically patterned arrays of magnetic thin film and multilayer elements are investigated by exploring their magnetic state, extending from the atomic scale up to collective ordering phenomena of nano-magnetic elements.

  4. 2. Self-assembly of magnetic particles

    Author : Hauke Carstensen; Max Wolff; Vassilios Kapaklis; Björgvin Hjörvarsson; Benjamin Yellen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; self-assembly; tunable interactions; phase transition; ferrofluid; Fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Self-assembly is the spontaneous formation of larger structures from small building blocks. This process is driven and determined by the interactions between the constituents. READ MORE

  5. 3. Dynamics in magnetic metamaterials

    Author : Agnė Čiučiulkaitė; Vassilios Kapaklis; Gabriella Andersson; Björgvin Hjörvarsson; Will Branford; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Metamaterials are artificially created structures with properties that are not found in nature. They can be tailored to achieve desired response to external excitations such as external electric and magnetic fields, as well as to enhance materials’ optical or magnetic activity. READ MORE

  6. 4. The interaction of light and magnetism in the TbxCo100-x system

    Author : Agne Ciuciulkaite; Vassilios Kapaklis; Pablo Maldonado; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; magnetism; rate-earth transition metal alloys; light-magnetism interaction; all-optical switching; Fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Development of the faster and denser magnetic memory storage elements has been an active area of research since early 20th century. The path of research on magnetization manipulation began with firstly changing the magnetization state of a medium in an external magnetic field, then heating of a medium and magnetizing with a permanent magnet was explored, while the latest efforts have been focused on switching the magnetization only by a polarized laser light.

  7. 5. Electronic and magnetic properties of Tsai quasicrystals and their approximants under pressure

    Author : Fernand Denoel; Roland Mathieu; Vassilios Kapaklis; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Tsai quasicrystal; high pressure; diamond anvil cell; Physics with spec. in Atomic; Molecular and Condensed Matter Physics; Fysik med inriktning mot atom- molekyl- och kondenserande materiens fysik;

    Abstract : Quasicrystals constitute a special category of crystals exhibiting long-range order without periodicity. This strange feature allows them to exhibit rotational symmetries prohibited in regular crystals, such as 5-, 8-, 10- or 12-fold symmetry. Amongst them, icosahedral quasicrystals are the only type that is aperiodic along all 3 dimensions. READ MORE
