Manuel Bibes

After 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.{{Cite thesis |title=Elaboration et étude de couches minces de manganites à valence mixte |url=https://theses.fr/2001ISAT0041 |publisher=Toulouse, INSA |date=January 1, 2001 |degree=These de doctorat |first=Manuel |last=Bibes}} 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.{{Cite web |title=Laboratoire Albert Fert - CNRS, Thales, Université Paris-Saclay |url=https://laboratoire-albert-fert.cnrs-thales.fr/ |access-date=July 2, 2024 |website=Laboratoire Albert Fert |language=fr-FR}} All his research publications are listed in Google Scholar.{{Cite web |title=Manuel Bibes |url=https://scholar.google.fr/citations?user=kfeglzwAAAAJ |access-date=July 2, 2024 |website=scholar.google.fr}}

Throughout his career, Bibes has been a leader in research of multiferroic materials{{Cite news |date=June 24, 2013 |title=Ferrite de bismuth, le solide surdoué |url=https://www.lemonde.fr/sciences/article/2013/06/24/ferrite-de-bismuth-le-solide-surdoue_3435707_1650684.html |access-date=July 2, 2024 |work=Le Monde.fr |language=fr}} (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{{Cite news |date=June 13, 2009 |title=Electronique : De futures mémoires ferroélectriques |work=Le Monde}} (results published in Nature{{Cite journal |last1=Garcia |first1=V. |last2=Fusil |first2=S. |last3=Bouzehouane |first3=K. |last4=Enouz-Vedrenne |first4=S. |last5=Mathur |first5=N.
