Philipp Eib
Philipp Eib received his master’s degree in physics from the ETH Zurich. He is currently pursuing his doctorate at the IBM Research Laboratory in Rüschlikon, Switzerland. He uses spin-resolved scanning electron microscopy and time-resolved Kerr microscopy to study nanomagnetism, with emphasis on the statics and dynamics of magnetic domain walls.

A robust measurement scheme indicates that a spin-related torque that speeds up moving domain walls in magnetic nanostructures is larger than previously estimated.
