A. Manchon, J. Železný, I. M. Miron, T. Jungwirth, J. Sinova, A. Thiaville, K. Garello, and P. Gambardella. Rev. Mod. Phys. 91, 035004 (2019) Spin-orbit coupling in inversion-asymmetric magnetic crystals and structures has emerged as a powerful tool to generate complex magnetic textures, interconvert charge and spin under applied current, and control magnetization dynamics. Current-induced spin-orbit […]

You find here the list of proposals for Master-2 internships to take place at Spintec during Spring 2020. 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. You may download the full list of proposals, along with an introduction to the […]

A GMR Heads oral history panel was held at the Computer History Museum, Mountain view, California, in May 2019. It celebrated the introduction of giant magnetoresistance (GMR) heads in hard disk drives in 1997, which has been a key is sustaining the growth rate of areal density in magnetic recording. The panel featured four colleagues […]
