Congratulations to Sebastian Lamb-Camarena on His PhD

06.11.2024

On November 5th, 2024 Sebastian held the defence of his thesis “3D Curvilinear Nano-Magnetism and Spatio-Temporal Magneto Optic Microscopy.” His PhD research was conducted under the supervision of Oleksandr Dobrovolskiy.

Materials harboring complex magnetic states are at the forefront of current condensed matter research. Magnetic nanostrctures have emerged as a viable alternative to conventional approaches towards the realization of chiral magnetic textures, which are based on tuning of intrinsic properties of materials. Developing a deeper insight and methodologies to study these phenomena has been Sebastian’s work at the NanoMag’s SuperSpin Lab.

Originally from London, Sebastian was awarded both his BSc and MPhys from the University of Warwick in the United Kingdom. He joined the group in 2021, within the framework of the joint German-Austrian (DFG-FWF) project "Curvature-Induced Effects in Magnetic Nanostructures".

During his time as a PhD researcher in our group, Sebastian has shown a great capacity for independent work and developing experimental set-ups. His friendliness and willingness to help his colleagues has made him a very beloved member of the group – as the picture illustrating this article shows!

We wish Sebastian many successes in his new adventures and we will miss him dearly!

Sebastian with the sword (a Finish PhD conferment tradition!) he was gifted by his colleagues. With that, we can confirm that Dr. Lamb-Camarena is a true NanoMag knight.
