Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Bekir Aktas, Faik Mikailov – Gebze Institute of Technology group has long-time experience in Ferromagnetic Resonance studies of magnetic anisotropies in thin ferromagnetic films and nanostructures, including GMR systems. The group has successfully held 6 national projects sponsored by DPT (National Technology Foundation of Turkey) and TUBITAK (Turkish Council for Scientific and Technical Research), which allowed to supply Physics labs of GIT by firmware equipment and components with nominal value more than 1.5 M€. The group leader, Prof. B.Aktas has published more than 70 papers in refereed journals, he has edited (together with Dr. Faik Mikailov) the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Physics volume (No 593, 2002) on "Nanostructured Magnetic Materials and their Applications" and Kluwer Academic Publishers, NATO Science Series II: Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry volume (No 143, 2004), organized (together with Dr. Faik Mikailov) the International Workshops on Nanostructured Magnetic Materials and their Applications, NMMA-2001 (Gebze/Istanbul), NATO ARW "Nanostructured Magnetic Materials and their Applications", NMMA-2003 (Istanbul), and International Conference in Nanoscale Magnetism (ICNM-2005) in Gebze.

Lenar Tagirov –Since 1998 he is a Professor at the Theoretical Physics Department of KSU and since 2004 is Director of the Research Laboratory "Physics of Magnetic Nanostructures" at KSU. L.R. Tagirov was a Principal Investigator of three successfully finished national grants, he is the leader of RFBR project, participating also in the international projects REC-007 (Kazan) sponsored by CRDF (USA). Prof. L. Tagirov, with theoretical part of the group, is involved in the project "Ballistic Magnetoresistance in thin-film nanocontacts" funded by EC. He has developed an original approach to calculateelectric conductivity and magnetoresistance (MR) of tiny contacts made of ferromagnetic metals and proposed the concept of Quantum Spin Valve. He has authored/co-authored to-date more than 70 refereed journal papers, he has co-editored the Kluwer Academic Publishers volume "Nanostructured Magnetic Materials and their Applications", NATO Science Series II: Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry(v. 143, 2004), organized NATO ARW NMMA-2003 at Istanbul, 1-4 July 2003 (co-director from Partner Countries) and entered Organization Committees of few International scientific meetings (NT-32, Kazan, Russia; NMMA-2001, Istanbul, Turkey; RTNM-2003, Gebze, Turkey, NDFA-2004, Kishinev, Moldova).
