Sebastien Couet
Sebastien Couet received his PhD in physics from the University of Hamburg, Germany, in 2008. From 2009 to 2014, he was a postdoctoral fellow at the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium, where he specialized in the interface physics of magnetic/oxide heterostructures. In 2014, he joined imec, Leuven, where he is currently the program director for magnetics. In this role, he oversees the development of the various MRAM-based memory concepts for embedded and standalone applications and other exploratory magnetic device concepts.
