Scientific and popular science lectures
Why excite magnetic waves with light
A winning presentation at Science Slam St. Petersburg in 2018. He briefly explained why spin waves are needed and how we excite them with a laser in the lab.
Radio for a quantum computer
A presentation at Science Slam in honor of Radio Day 2020 at UrFU. Again about spin waves, laser excitation, magnetism, science, and what it contributes to a brighter future, including quantum computing.
Why shine a laser on a magnet
A popular science lecture for schoolchildren on modern magnetism
Enhancement of magnet-optical effects in photonic structures
A lecture on enhancing magneto-optical effects. I’ll start with familiar macrostructures, move on to photonic crystals and plasmonic structures, and finish with fully dielectric metasurfaces. This lecture is an overview, covering as much ground as possible without going into too much depth. It’s intended for senior students in relevant fields (optics, photonics, and similar). That is, it’s a specialized lecture, not a popular science piece.
Methods for visualizing magnetic domains
This lecture is from the Micromagnetism course, but is useful for anyone studying magnetism. In this video, we’ll explore various methods for visualizing magnetic domains and boundaries, including exotic ones for the most complex magnetic structures. Discover the power of magneto-optics and other techniques that allow you to see the invisible! We’ll discuss methods from benchtop to synchrotrons, from lasers to cantilevers. This lecture is quite an overview, ideal for students, researchers, and anyone interested in magnetism and its applications.
What can be improved in a hard drive
A popular science lecture on how a hard drive works, where all the information on the internet is stored, and how to speed it all up with femtosecond laser pulses. The lecture took place in a St. Petersburg cafe immediately after the 2021 pandemic. Organizer: the Atomic Energy Information Center
