Theory of Spin Systems

Department of Physics - RPTU Kaiserslautern-Landau

Welcome to the website of the Working group / Arbeitsgruppe (AG) Theory of Spin Systems.

We are theoretical solid-state physicists with a keen interest in the spin degree of freedom. Please see our Research page for further details. We enjoy working with colleagues, both at the RPTU and internationally. Our theoretical projects keep a close eye on experimental feasibility and advancements.

We also take great pride and joy in educating students. This includes teaching courses (see Teaching page), supervising research projects and theses, as well as guiding students in developing leadership skills.

We are always happy to welcome new group members who share our enthusiasm towards learning, self-development, and contributing to the development of people and institutions around us.

Our article Magnon-mediated exciton–exciton interaction in a van der Waals antiferromagnet has been published in Nature Materials. Thanks to colleagues from New York, Prague, London, and Golden, Colorado for the exciting collaboration. Special thanks and congratulations to the Menon group at CUNY which led the project.

1st March 2025

Marvin Goronczy has joined the group as a research assistant. He plans to work on spin dynamics and transport in antiferromagnets. Welcome Marvin!

14th February 2025

Our article Nonreciprocity in Magnon Mediated Charge-Spin-Orbital Current Interconversion has been published in Nano Letters. Thanks to our Spin+X colleagues in Mainz, especially the Kläui group which led this project, for the exciting collaboration.  

3rd February 2025

Our application, project A13, to join Spin+X has been funded by the DFG. Thanks to our colleagues in Kaiserslautern and Mainz for their support. We look forward to making important contributions to understanding the physics of spin in its environment while collaborating with our Spin+X colleagues.

1st January 2025

Bashab Dey and Sonu Verma have joined the group as postdoctoral fellows. Before joining us, Bashab worked as a postdoc in Regensburg and Sonu was a postdoc in Daejeon, South Korea. Welcome Sonu and Bashab!
