Spin+Coupling-Control: Control of spin-spin interactions in hybrid layer systems (B05)

• Subject Area: Experimental Condensed Matter Physics
• Term: from 2016 to 2023
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 268565370

The project aims at the active control of spin-spin interactions in organic based hybrid systems on ferromagnetic materials. We will design layer structures with two functional units: a hybrid interface system consisting of 2D honeycomb materials on ferromagnets (FM) and thus chemically from the FM decoupled layers of functionalized molecules grown on top. The spin functionalities of both units will be controlled by light and chemical engineering. Using local-, time-, spin-, and k-resolved spectroscopy, we will determine the microscopic parameters that govern the spin functionalities in these structures and explore the potential to actively design their spin functionalities for new spintronic applications.
