Topological structures in ferroic materials have drawn great interest in recent years due to
the richness of the underlying physics and the potential for applications in next generation …

In this paper, we present an overview of recent progress made in the understanding of the
spin-torque induced magnetization dynamics in nanodevices using mesoscopic …

Chiral effects originate from the lack of inversion symmetry within the lattice unit cell or
sample's shape. Being mapped onto magnetic ordering, chirality enables topologically non …

Synchrotron-based photoemission electron microscopy (XPEEM) is one of the most powerful
spectro-microscopic techniques for the investigation of surfaces, interfaces, thin films and …

Micromagnetics is based on the one hand on a continuum approximation of exchange
interactions, including boundary conditions, on the other hand on Maxwell equations in the …

A real-space phase field model based on the time-dependent Ginzburg–Landau (TDGL)
equation is developed to predict the domain evolution of ferromagnetic materials. The phase …

Many bottom-up and top-down techniques for nanomaterial and nanostructure generation
have enabled the development of applications in nanoelectronics and nanophotonics …

Correlating the electronic structure and magnetic response with the morphology and crystal
structure of the same single ferromagnetic nanoparticle has been up to now an unresolved …

We propose a short overview of a few selected issues of magnetism in reduced dimensions,
which are the most relevant to set the background for more specialized contributions to the …
