Functions:

CEA lead scientist in fundamental research on Condensed Matter

Responsability:

  • CEA-director of research
  • Group leader on spintronics of magnetic insulators at the CEA-Grenoble 
  • Founder of the Magnetic Resonance Force Microscopy group at the CEA-Saclay
  • Senior expert in magnetic resonance spectroscopy for national and european agencies. Scientific officer for the CEE.

Research:

Olivier Klein has been the project leader in Europe on the development of Magnetic Resonance Force Microscopy (MRFM). The aim was to develop innovative tool to perform spectroscopy of magnetic nano-objects. MRFMs are inspired by magnetic force microscope. A micron-size permanent magnet is affixed at the free end of a clamped cantilever and placed in the stray field of the sample.  The resulting point load on the tip induces an elastic deformation of the cantilever. Changes in the deformation are monitored when the magnetic resonance is electromagnetically excited in the sample. Dimensional analysis shows that cantilevers are better detectors compared to coils when it comes to volume size below the micron scale. Ultra-soft cantilevers have achieved the sensitivity to detect single spin albeit in stringent conditions: vacuum, large field and sub-Kelvin temperatures.

In the past five years, he has been active in the spectroscopy of topological singular magnetic objects (e.g. vortices) as well as opening spintronics to magnetic oxides (e.g. YIG), which offer improved dynamical properties compared to their metallic counter-parts.

CV:

Olivier Klein is currently director of research at SPINTEC, CEA-Grenoble. After his graduation from ESPCI-Paris Tech in 1989, he obtained in 1993 a Ph.D. from UCLA studying the  microwave properties of superconductors, followed by a PostDoctoral fellowship at MIT working on single electron transistors in GaAs. He has joined the CEA in 1996 to develop Magnetic Resonance Force Microscopy in FranceSince, he obtained his Habilitation thesis from the University of Paris VI in 2004. After ten years at the Service de Physique de l'État Condensé (CEA-Saclay) devoted to the spectroscopy of magnetic nano-objects, he moved to SPINTEC (CEA-Grenoble) in 2014 where is current interest is spintronics of magnetic oxides. His areas of expertise are nanomagnetism, magnetic resonance, microwave spectroscopy and near field probe techniques.
