SPINTEC involved in the PEPR electronics recently funded by the French government in the framework of the national France 2030 strategy On July 12, 2022, the President of the Republic presented in Crolles the France 2030 national investment strategy for the electronics sector. France 2030 will dedicate more than 5 billion euros to support the […]

France is investing more than 38M€ in Spintronics thanks to the PEPR-SPIN exploratory program! SPIN is among the 13 new exploratory programs winners of the second wave of calls for projects Priority Programs and Equipment for Exploratory Research (PEPR). Funded by France 2030, this action (€1 billion) aims to launch research programs in emerging scientific […]

MNEMOSYN stands for « 2D MagNEtic meMOries: Scalable growth and hYbrid electrical operatioN ». It is 36-months-long FLAG-ERA Graphene Basic Research project. MNEMOSYN will develop and optimize techniques to grow large-scale 2D magnets, co-integrated with strong spin-orbit coupling materials, graphene and 2D ferroelectrics in multilayered van der Waals heterostructures. The main objective is to demonstrate […]

Van der Waals (vdW) layered magnets are promising materials to develop ultracompact and multifunctional spintronics devices. However, most of them are magnetic only at low temperature and are almost exclusively studied in the form of small flakes obtained by mechanical exfoliation. Here, we demonstrate the direct growth by molecular beam epitaxy of Fe5GeTe2, a room […]

In the frame of the French national ANR project ELMAX, Spintec laboratory is opening a postdoctoral researcher position. The candidate will work on the magnetism of FexGeTe2 2D ferromagnets grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The objective will be to tune the magnetic properties of 2D ferromagnets by interfacing with high spin-orbit materials (transition metal dichalcogenides […]

You find here the list of proposals for Master-2 internships to take place at Spintec during Spring 2022. In most cases, these internships are intended to be suitable for a longer-term PhD work. Interested Master-1 students are also encouraged to apply, as well as students not phased for a Spring internship, especially those coming from […]

SPINTEC is opening a tenured position for a supporting engineer for the epitaxy of 2D materials. The engineer will be part of SPINTEC’s 2D spintronics team, with the objective of developing and managing an ambitious epitaxial growth platform being put together, as well as developing the associated characterisation tools, and serving researchers both at the […]

Two-dimensional materials like graphene or transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have attracted a lot of attention during the last decade for their original electronic properties intimately related to their 2D character and symmetries. At Spintec, the “2D spintronics” team develops the molecular beam epitaxy of TMDs for spintronics and has recently succeeded in growing a new […]

The spin absorption process in a ferromagnetic material depends on the spin orientation relatively to the magnetization. Using a ferromagnet to absorb the pure spin current created within a lateral spin valve, we evidence and quantify a sizable orientation dependence of the spin absorption in Co, CoFe, and NiFe. These experiments allow us to determine […]
