Position: PhD student
Research interests:
My research focusses on the magnon-phonon interaction in ferromagnetic systems. In particular, I investigate how the interaction with surface accoustic waves can be used to control the magnetization dynamics. Moreover, I am also interested in understanding the role of tthe magnon-phonon interaction in the magnon damping.
Key research areas:
Magnon-phonon interaction: Magneto-elastic and magneto-rotation coupling and transfer of angular momentum between the spin and lattice system.
Quantum geometry: Effect of a non-trivial magnon geometry in the magnon-phonon interaction.
