Ph.D. defense of Ms. Héloïse Damas

ULTIMATE-I is pleased to invite you to PhD defence entitled: Spin current generation and self-induced spin-orbit torque in quasi-isolated GdFeCo ferrimagnet

Héloïse Damas is PhD student within the Spintronics and Nanomagnetism team at Institut Jean Lamour in Nancy, France. She studies self-induced Spin-Orbit Torque in GdFeCo ferrimagnet and her expertise is in electrical measurements (low and high-frequency measurements, magnetotransport), fabrication of devices, and transport.

The defence is on Thursday, November 9th, 2023 at 1:30 pm sharp online and in amphitheatre A200 (Mines Nancy – Campus Artem – Nancy). The introduction of the presentation will be held in French and the rest of the presentation in English.

Photo ULTIMATE-I secondment to Magnetic Resonance Laboratory, Physics Department of the Centro Atómico Bariloche of the Comisión Nacional de Energía Atómica, located in Bariloche, Rio Negro, Argentina.

Secondment of Dr. Mario C.G. Passeggi (CONICET, Argentina) to University of Zaragoza/INMA: discussing theoretical and experimental work on surface physics of magnetic materials

Dr Mario C.G. Passeggi director of the Surface Physics Group of the Institute of Technological Development for the Chemical Industry (INTEC, CONICET, Argentina) made a secondment to the University of Zaragoza/INMA in the framework of the Ultimate I project. The research lines of his group are directed at studying the surface properties of materials comprising both the surface physics and interfaces laboratories and the theoretical physics of surfaces. The second included meetings with Spanish researchers, evaluation of the ESR research already done in the past two years of the project, and setting precise targets for the remaining project period.

The Surface Physics Group is part of the Institute, the Instituto de Física del Litoral (IFIS Litoral), maintaining the double dependence on CONICET and the Universidad Nacional del Litoral.
