PhD Thesis Covers

This work delves into the realm of spintronics, focusing on magnetic structures exhibiting metal-insulator transitions and their potential for versatile device functionalities under external stimuli. The cover features an atomic structure with varied magnetic moments pointing in different directions, irradiated by a laser, symbolizing the intricate complexities of his study. Jose Manuel's research examines the magnetic properties of two temperature-controlled metal-insulator transition complex oxides, unraveling insights crucial for the future development of spintronic devices. The depiction on the cover serves as a visual representation of his in-depth exploration into these complex magnetic systems.

The cover art symbolizes Carla's transformative journey throughout her doctoral experience. The design is a visual representation of her research focus during her PhD. Her specialization involves the enhancement of rare-earth-free permanent magnets, achieved through extensive work with gas-atomized materials subjected to various processes, including ball milling and hot pressing. These processes contribute to the development of a final magnet with exceptional properties.
