Biography
editAfter earning an engineering degree from the Institut National des Sciences Appliquées de Toulouse in 1998, Bibes completed his Ph.D. under the supervision of Josep Fontcuberta at the ICMAB, at the Autonomous University of Barcelona in 2001, focusing on thin manganite films and their application in spintronics.[2] His PhD was followed by a postdoctoral fellowship at the Joint Physics Unit CNRS/Thales (currently known as Laboratory Albert Fert) under the guidance of Prof. Albert Fert. Bibes joined the CNRS in 2003 at the Institute of Fundamental Electronics, now known as the Center for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (C2N). Afterwards he completed research stays at MIT and the University of Cambridge as a visiting researcher and joined the Laboratory Albert Fert at 2007.[3] All his research publications are listed in Google Scholar.[4]
Throughout his career, Bibes has been a leader in research of multiferroic materials[5] (which simultaneously exhibits magnetic and ferroelectric properties) and their utilisation in electrical control of magnetism. In 2009, his team discovered the phenomenon of giant tunnel electroresistance in ferroelectric tunnel junctions[6] (results published in Nature[7]) demonstrating their potential as artificial synapses.[8] In 2016, in collaboration with the Spintec[9] laboratory, he demonstrated that non-magnetic oxide interfaces can be used as ultrasensitive spin detectors. This findings led to a collaboration with Intel[10] for the development of a new type of energy efficient transistor[11] (MESO) aimed at replacing the current transistors based on CMOS technology. Since 2018, Manuel Bibes has been recognized as a Highly Cited Researcher by Clarivate Analytics.[12] In June 2022, along with Agnès Barthélémy, Ramamoorthy Ramesh and Nicola Spaldin, he received the Europhysics Prize from the European Physical Society for their significant contributions to the fundamental and applied physics of multiferroic and magnetoelectric materials.[13]
