Overview

Olle Eriksson is affiliated with Uppsala University in Sweden and has an extensive publication record across several domains of physics and materials science. Their research primarily focuses on the magnetic properties of materials, with a particular emphasis on thin films, perovskites, and alloys. They also engage with advanced condensed matter physics and the physics of superconductivity and magnetism.

Eriksson's work spans multiple subfields, including atomic and molecular physics and optics, electronic, optical and magnetic materials, materials chemistry, condensed matter physics, and electrical and electronic engineering. The main topics of their research activity include:

  • Magnetic properties of thin films
  • Magnetic and transport properties of perovskites and related materials
  • Advanced Condensed Matter Physics
  • Physics of Superconductivity and Magnetism
  • Magnetic Properties of Alloys
  • 2D Materials and Applications
  • Quantum and electron transport phenomena

Among their recent notable papers are:

  • "Direct light-induced spin transfer between different elements in a spintronic Heusler material via femtosecond laser excitation," published in 2020 in Science Advances
  • "Quantitative theory of magnetic interactions in solids," published in 2023 in Reviews of Modern Physics
  • "High-throughput and data-mining approach to predict new rare-earth free permanent magnets," published in 2020 in Physical Review B
  • "Coexistence of Superconductivity and Charge Density Waves in Tantalum Disulfide: Experiment and Theory," published in 2020 in Physical Review Letters
  • "Magnon-magnon entanglement and its quantification via a microwave cavity," published in 2021 in Physical Review B

Frequent co-authors working alongside Eriksson include Anna Delin, Anders Bergman, Danny Thonig, Manuel Pereiro, and Erik Sjöqvist.

The researcher regularly publishes in several venues, with the most frequent being arXiv (Cornell University), Physical Review B, SSRN Electronic Journal, Scientific Reports, and Physical Review Research.

In addition to articles, Eriksson has contributed to book publications, including a volume titled Molecular Nanomagnets published by Springer Nature in 2020.

The combination of prolific outputs in both journals and books, coauthorship with multiple collaborators, and diverse research topics highlights an active contribution to ongoing developments in magnetic materials and condensed matter physics.
