Description

What are two-dimensional magnets? What do they do? Why do so many researchers spend their lives studying them? In this episode, Dr. Samuel Bladwell (Senior Editor at Nature Communications) hosts Dr. Antonija Grubisic-Cabo (Assistant Professor - University of Groningen), Dr. Maz Ali (Associate Professor - TU Delft) and Dr. Samer Kurdi to give a general introduction to two-dimensional magnetic materials and an answer to these questions. Here we assume only a very general knowledge on magnets and materials. Have you ever stuck a fridge magnet on your fridge? Then you should have the correct background for it!

In this podcast micro-series we give a brief overview of the world of quantum (two-dimensional) magnetic materials. In the three episodes we go from a very general introduction to the fundamental physical concepts and the applications in future electronics. We chatted with a diverse and enthusiastic group of leading scientists in the field from different parts of Europe.

This podcast series was recorded during the workshop on Quantum Magnetic Materials at the Lorentz Centre in Leiden, the Netherlands. It received financial support from the Lorentz Center, Qnami, and the Dutch Research Council (NWO). The recording and sound mixing was performed by Wim Brons.
