Vinai

IOM Headquarters
Research staff

Giovanni Vinai (born 1986) received his Ph.D. degree in Physics in 2013 at the University of Grenoble, France, where he defended the dissertation on "Scalability and improvement of exchange bias properties for Thermally Assisted-MRAM" at Spintec laboratory.

He has been conducting research in magnetism and spectroscopy at CNR-IOM in Trieste at APE-HE beamline since 2014, firstly as post-doc, then as Research scientist.

He is the scientific and security responsible of the MINT laboratory. He is the beamline scientist of the UHV setup of APE-HE beamline for XAS/XMCD/XMLD spectroscopic characterizations.

His research interests include magnetic heterostructures and the magneto-electric properties of functional heterostructures and thin films. The class of materials of interest includes multiferroics and multiferroic heterostructures, hybrid magnetic interfaces, complex oxides and 2D materials.
