Summer internships at the NanoMag

25.07.2022

This summer, many interns are joining the NanoMag. We are happy to open the doors of our group to a diverse group of people, ranging from high school students to postgraduate junior researchers.

Openness and cooperativeness are important attributes of our research group. We value working with others, and we try our best to communicate what we are doing. This has also meant welcoming interested students to join us during summer. After having great interns last year, this one we are joined by a much bigger and varied group of students.
 
During their internship, students are supervised by one member of the group and have the opportunity to experience directly some of our research directions and activities. This year, the Nanomag’s  interns are:
 
Mariia Kulbaieva and Maksym Salashny are high school students, who had to flee Ukraine, and want to study physics. Both are working with Rostyslav Serha and Dr. Khrystyna Levchenko in some of their experiments in our mK spectroscopy and BLS labs.
 
Martina Perisa is a Gymnasium student, who has joined Pedro del Real for an FFG-sponsored internship in the frames of “We catch magnons” project. While learning about the group’s research and possible applications, Martina will focus on science communication.
 
Jan Klíma is part of the VDSP summer internship program, working within the SuperSpin Lab under the supervision of Barbora Budinska. Jan is a student at CEITEC, Brno under the supervision of Michal Urbanek, one of our closest collaborators.
 
Andreas Höflinger is a Master’s student at the University of Vienna and joins Kris Levchenko’s development of a probe station for microwave measurements .
 
Emre Agacdiken is working together with Dr. Qi Wang, helping him with the implementation of innovative techniques in the Brillouin Light Scattering (BLS) spectroscopy.
 
Richard Emberger is a Bachelor’s student at our Faculty, and he joins Dr. Sebastian Knauer, who is researching in the fields of mK magneto-optical hybrid nano-systems.
 
Fabian Polnitzky repeats this year as summer intern after his great job last summer. This year he is collaborating with Krystyna Davidkova, Qi Wang and Sabri Koraltan from the Functional Materials Group by doing some COMSOL simulations to optimize the efficiency of spin-wave excitation and detection.
