Eva Benckiser

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Eva Vera Benckiser is a German physicist and research group leader at the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research in Stuttgart . In 2018 she received the Walter Schottky Prize .

Life

Eva Benckiser received her doctorate in 2007 from the University of Cologne and was then a postdoctoral fellow and later a group leader at the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research in Stuttgart. Since 2014 she has headed the Minerva working group "X-ray spectroscopy of oxide heterostructures".

research

Eva Benckiser develops X-ray spectroscopic methods to determine the spin , charge and orbital order at the interfaces of metal oxide - heterostructures . In particular, it showed that layer-specific profiles of the magnetic correlations of these systems can be reconstructed from a precise analysis of the polarization and energy dependence of the X-ray scattering . In further studies they analyzed the composition of the nickel - atomic orbitals and the charge transfer of nickel oxide interfaces and each scored a microscopic understanding of the underlying mechanisms.

Prizes and awards

In 2014, Eva Benckiser received a Minerva Prize from the Max Planck Society for her research . In 2018 she was awarded the Walter Schottky Prize of the German Physical Society "for her outstanding contributions to the research of complex materials with correlated electrons".
