His present activities are in spintronics\, nanomagnetism\, and ultrafast spin- and magnetization-dynami cs. Key research achievements have been made in laser-induced femtosecond magnetization processes and controlling current-induced domain wall motion – in many cases combining experimental and theoretical approaches. With in the TU/e NWO Gravitation program on photonic integration\, he has initi ated a research program on integrated magneto-photonics\, exploring future energy-efficient and versatile information technology. In 2019 he receive d the Educational Award for the Best TU/e Master Lecturer. In 2020 he was elected Distinguished Lecturer of the IEEE Magnetics Society.\n\nAbstract: Femto-magnetism is about controlling the magnetic state and the way the e lectron spin flows through magnetic thin film systems at down to femtoseco nd time scales\, typically triggered by ultrashort laser pulses. In this t utorial I will provide an introduction to the intriguing phenomena for stu dents and researchers without a specific background in this topic\, and/or with interest in a more fundamental\, conceptual understanding. For this reason\, I will start with reviewing some of the relevant concepts in cond ensed matter and magnetic materials. This will serve to build up understan ding of simple model-based explanations of the complex light- and heat-dri ven processes\, as well as recent experimental developments. Specific proc esses that will be addressed are the ultrafast loss of magnetization upon fs laser heating\, all-optical switching of magnetization\, laser-driven s pin currents\, and the induced spin-transport torque. Finally\, a brief ou tlook will be sketched of future applications\, including on-chip integrat ion of spintronics and photonics.\n\nRoom: 4-A014\, Bldg: Institut Jean La mour \, 5 Allee Guinier\, Nancy\, Lorraine\, France\, 54011 LOCATION:Room: 4-A014\, Bldg: Institut Jean Lamour \, 5 Allee Guinier\, Nan cy\, Lorraine\, France\, 54011 ORGANIZER:stephane.mangin@univ-lorraine.fr SEQUENCE:5 SUMMARY:Introduction to Femto-magnetism From basics in Condensed Matter to a Future Vision URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/547001 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p class="MsoNormal"><img src="https://events .vtools.ieee.org/vtools_ui/media/display/92250b33-ef36-4d89-8325-195b07857 2cc" alt="Bert Koopmans" width="100" height="123" align="left" hspace="12" ><span lang="EN-US">Bert Koopmans is a full professor and chair of the gro up Physics of Nanostructures at TU/e.
