Research Project: GHz spectroscopy probe on physical reservoir computing hardware based on skyrmions
Supervisors: Hide Kurebayashi (UCL), Will Branford (ICL)

Daniel graduated with an MPhys in Physics from the University of Durham in 2022. His masters project investigated the use of full linear polarisation analysis to characterise magnetic structures in centrosymmetric materials. This focused on a potential skyrmion phase seen in Gd3Ru4Al12. Daniel’s PhD project at UCL will be to develop physical reservoir computing hardware making use of magnetic systems, including but not limited to skyrmions, in order to bring down energy costs and reduce training times of machine learning.

The CDT gave me the opportunity to meet people working in different fields and gain experience in a wide range of characterisation techniques that I could apply to my research.
