Rana Alhalabi has been awarded of the best poster prize at the 18th Non-Volatile Memory Technology Symposium that took place in October 2018 in Sendai, Japan. The title of the poster was “High density SOT-MRAM memory array based on a single transistor”. Based on a 32kb memory, this work has shown that replacing one of […]

In the frame of the French national ANR project “SPINNET”, SPINTEC is offering an 18 month postdoctoral or clean room engineer position for the nanofabrication of arrays of vortex based spin torque oscillator devices. The objective is to demonstrate a proof of concept to use vortex magnetic tunnel junction devices as “microwave-to-DC” signal converters with […]

Despite being a weak spin–orbit coupling material, graphene demonstrated to induce significant Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction due to the Rashba effect leading to formation of chiral spin textures in adjacent ferromagnet (FM) at graphene/FM interfaces. First-principles calculations and experiments using spin-polarized electron microscopy show that this graphene-induced Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction can have a similar magnitude to that at […]

A full hybrid magnetic/CMOS System on Chip (SoC), embedding analog and digital functions based on spintronics devices on the same die, has been designed and sent to manufacturing. It is the first demonstrator of such a circuit worldwide. Spintronics, which aims at using magnetic devices beside standard CMOS transistors, has been intensively studied for several […]

On Februray, 7, we have the pleasure to welcome in SPINTEC Hari Srikanth professor at University of South Florida (USA). He will give us an IEEE Distinguished Lecture (*) at 11:00, CEA/Spintec, Bat. 1005, room 434A entitled : Tuning Magnetic Anisotropy in Nanostructures for Biomedical and Electromagnetic Applications Magnetic nanoparticles have been building blocks in […]

SPINTEC laboratory and IFW-Dresden have agreed to strengthen their ties through an international collaborative agreement. This takes the so-called form of an International Associated Lab (LIA), supported by both CNRS and the Leibniz Society. Although the formal agreement enters into force on January 1st 2019 only, our two laboratories are already engaged actively in collaborative […]

You find here the list of proposals for Master-2 internships to take place during Spring 2019. 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 either download the full list of proposals, along with an introduction to the SPINTEC […]

Overview SPINNET stands for Microwave SPINtronics for Wireless Sensor NETworks. It is a 42-month-long ANR project. Wireless sensor networks WSN are a key technology of the Internet of things (IoT) that couples physical infrastructures with Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). Nowadays, sensors are everywhere, in vehicles, in habitat, in smart phones, in factories or in […]

On October 23 at 11am at SPINTEC room 434A, Guillaume Salagnac (left) and Tanguy Risset (right) from INRIA Lyon will kindly present the work of their team during a seminar entitled: “NV-RAM and harvesting technologies for next generation sensors: a system and software perspective” The Socrate Inria Team (https://team.inria.fr/socrate/) has launched a new research activity […]

Paulo COELHO defends his PhD on Tuesday 30th October, 2pm, at the CNRS conference room (25 rue des Martyrs). An access request is required before hand, is you wish to attend. This thesis is a study of spin transfer torque in double barrier magnetic tunnel junction for STT-MRAM applications. In these double barrier junctions, spin […]
