Biography

Aleš received his PhD in 2011 from Institut Néel/CNRS for his work on magnetic domain wall dynamics in ferrimagnetic and ultrathin magnetic films with perpendicular anisotropy. In 2012 he joined the Condensed Matter group at the University of Leeds where he pursued his work on high-spin-orbit interaction magnetic systems. In 2015 he became a post-doctoral fellow at Laboratoire de Physique des Solides at Université Paris-Sud where he focused on physics of magnetic skyrmions in systems combining dipolar and DM interactions. Since 2018, he is a senior scientist at the Mesoscopic Systems group at ETH Zurich with the main interest in spintronics.
