Magnetic imaging of spin waves and magnetic phase transitions with nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond
The elementary excitations of magnets are called spin waves, and their corresponding quasi-particles are known as magnons. The rapidly growing field of Magnonics aims at using them as information carriers in a new generation of electronic devices, (almost) free of electric currents.

‘Toen ik het in 2010 had over de materialen voor een energietransitie, werd er nog net niet gelachen’
Om windturbines en elektrische auto’s te bouwen, hebben we tonnen magneten nodig. Momenteel importeren we die voornamelijk uit China, waardoor Europa voor de energietransitie erg afhankelijk is van deze grootmacht. Daar moet verandering in komen, aldus Industrieel ecoloog René Kleijn. In het project…
