The ANR project OISO (OxIde-based SpinOrbitronics) explores the potential of transition metal oxide (TMO) perovskites for SpinOrbitronics. SpinOrbitronics exploits the spin-orbit coupling (SOC) to obtain spin currents without ferromagnets (FM), more efficient torques to switch magnetization and reduced heat dissipation for low power scalable devices. TMO constitute a material platform of structurally well-matched compounds including […]

In relation with the ERC of Chief Scientists Bernard Diény, SPINTEC has been invited to be presented in the 23rd issue of Science and Technology of Pan European Networks. Pan European Networks is an independent portal devoted to providing the most relevant and up to date information for the use of not only the European Commission, […]

The medal of innovation of CNRS is granted yearly to one or a few persons having conducted ground-breaking research, which led to key innovation in technology, life or social sectors. Since 2011, this distinction has been awarded for outstanding scientific research leading to a remarkable innovation, whether in the technological, therapeutic or societal fields. Jean-Pierre […]

On September, 13, we will have the pleasure to welcome Hendrik Ohldag from SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, Menlo Park, California, USA in Spintec. At 11H, we will give his IEEE Distinguished lecture on “Ultrafast and Very Small: Discover Nanoscale Magnetism With Picosecond Time Resolution Using X-Rays” in Spintec, bat 10.05, room 434 A. Today’s magnetic […]

INTERMAG is the annual conference of the IEEE Magnetics Society. It typically gathers between 1500 and 1700 attendees. This is the main conference on applied magnetism in the world. It follows a 4 years cycle and comes back to Europe every 4 years. The latest edition was in Dublin in April 2017. SPINTEC put together […]

In the frame of our ELECSPIN ANR project [1], we have an open position for a 12 months post-doc position. ELECSPIN project aims at developing spintronics devices based on manipulating magnetic properties by an electric field in oxides/ferromagnetic metal structures. The goal is to develop electric field assisted spin-transfer torque magnetic random access memories (STT-MRAM) […]

2 years postdoc position opening at SPINTEC in the framework of the H2020 EU FET-OPEN SPICE (2017-2020) project on “Development of optically sensitive storage layer materials to be integrated in magnetic tunnel junctions” Spin Transfer Torque Random Access Memories (STT-RAM) are focusing an increasing interest in microelectronics industry due to their non-volatility, speed, density, downsize […]

On September, 12, we have the pleasure to welcome in Spintec Andy Thomas from the Leibniz-Institute for Solid State and Materials Research in Dresden. At 14H, we will give a seminar on “Atomic layer deposited HfO2-based magnetic tunnel junctions”. Magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) consist of two ferromagnetic electrodes separated by a thin insulating tunnel barrier. […]

The CEA/INAC SPINTEC and SyMMES labs offer an 18 months post-doctoral position on the development of magnetically actuated metamaterials prototypes for biotechnology applications. This work is part of the ABIOMATER European FET project, with the general goal of developing bio-inspired metamaterials [1]. This project aims at the creation of a new class of magnetically actuated […]
