On November, 20, we have the pleasure to welcome Romain Lebrun from University Johannes Gutenberg, Mainz, Germany. At 11H, room 434 A, he will present give a talk on “Mutual synchronization of spin torque nano-oscillators through a long-range and tunable electrical coupling scheme”. The concept of spin-torque-driven high-frequency magnetization dynamics, allows the potential construction of […]

On November, 22, we will have the pleasure to welcome Frédéric BONNEL from Catalan Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (ICN2) in Spintec. At 11H, we will give a seminar on “Recent progress in experimental graphene and topological spintronics” The recent emergence of 2-dimensional materials and topological matter has opened new prospects for spintronics technologies [1]. […]

The recent discovery of nanometer-size whirling magnetic structures named magnetic skyrmions has opened a new path to manipulate magnetization at the nanoscale. Magnetic skyrmions are characterized by a chiral and topologically non-trivial spin structure, i.e their magnetization texture cannot be continuously transformed into the uniform magnetic state without causing a singularity. Skyrmions can also be […]
