Welcome to the magnetism group!
We are dedicated to cutting-edge research in the field of magnonics and related areas combined with excellent teaching.
Magnonics is a subfield of spintronics, which addresses the utilization of the spin degree of freedom for applications in information and communication technologies. We study „magnetic waves“, which are spin waves and their quanta called magnons, and we address new fundamental phenomena and their potential for applications. A particular focus is on macroscopic quantum phenomena such as supercurrents and their utilization, as well as on the development of magnonic devices for the information technology.
Our research is embedded in the Collaborative Research Center 173 „Spin+X“ funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, as well as by several national, European and international projects. We offer opportunities for qualification in the frames of student assistantships, bachelor, master diploma and PhD projects in an international environment.

Anna Maria Friedel and David Breitbach receive best poster prize at Magnonics 2023 Our PhD students Anna Maria Friedel and David Breitbach both received a best poster prize at the Magnonics 2023 Conference in Le Touquet-Paris-Plage, France. David Breitbach presented a poster on “Bistability based Magnon Computing”, which is part of his PhD work under supervision of Jun. Prof. Philipp Pirro. Anna Maria Friedel presented a poster on “Magnetisation dynamics of epitaxial Co2MnSi / X / Co2MnAl Heusler bilayers with metallic and non-metallic interlayers”. This work is part of her PhD equally supervised by Jun. Prof. Philipp Pirro in an international joint PhD program with the Institut Jean Lamour in Nancy. Both students received a travel grant by the RPTU Nachwuchsring for their trip to the conference in France. |

Kaiserslauterer Physiker für Lebensleistung in der Magnetismus-Forschung geehrt Physik-Professor Dr. Burkard Hillebrands wurde auf der Konferenz INTERMAG-2023 in Sendai/Japan von der Magnetismus Society der internationalen Ingenieur-Vereinigung IEEE (Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers) der Achievement Award verliehen. Damit würdigt die IEEE sein Lebenswerk in der Magnetismus-Forschung: „Für seine bahnbrechenden Beiträge auf dem Gebiet der Spindynamik, insbesondere in der Magnonik“. Hillebrands ist der erste Deutsche, der diese Auszeichnung erhält. Sie kann im Bereich des angewandten Magnetismus als weltweit höchste Ehrung angesehen werden. Hillebrands hat an der Technischen Universität Kaiserslautern (TUK) den Lehrstuhl für Magnetismus inne. In seiner Forschung untersucht er unter anderem die Eigenschaften und Anwendungsmöglichkeiten von Magnon-Quantenteilchen und die Materialeigenschaften magnetischer Nanosysteme. Zur Pressemeldung |
