The cornerstone of the activity at Materials Physics is the solid integration of research, educational and outreaching efforts. Educational efforts range from introduction level to post graduate studies, covering many aspects of modern physics.
Our scientific competence is based on the production and analysis of modern materials. Research activities range from in-house material synthesis and investigation to the utilization of large international facilities, with the quest of exploring the inherent properties of natural as well as man-made materials.

Watching hydrogen diffuse Using light transmission the diffusion of hydrogen can be directly visualized opening up new possibilities to address the fundamental aspects of hydrogen diffusion in materials. |
Direct imaging of thermal spin ice Using photoemission electron microscopy, employing x-ray magnetic circular dichroism, the thermal nature of interacting single domain nano magnetic elements can be directly observed. |
Melting artificial spin ice Real thermodynamics in an adrtificial spin ice array demonstrated for the first time using a low Curie temperature material. |
Magneto-plasmonics of Ni Angular resolved reflectivity measurements reveal how the plasmonic properties of Ni anti-dot arrays can be influenced by an external magnetic field. |
