Read moreSPINNET – An ANR project (October 10th, 2018)
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 […]

T. Brächer, M. Fabre, T. Meyer, T. Fischer, S. Auffret, O. Boulle, U. Ebels, P. Pirro, G. Gaudin, Nano Lett. 17, 7234 (2017) Detection of Short-Waved Spin Waves in Individual Microscopic Spin-Wave Waveguides Using the Inverse Spin Hall Effect We report on the wave-vector independent detection of short-waved spin waves with wavelengths down to 150 nm […]
Read moreEnhanced annealing stability and perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in perpendicular magnetic tunnel junctions using W layer (November 15th, 2017)
The stiffening of the perpendicular magnetic tunnel junction (pMTJ) stack resulting from the W insertion due to its very high melting temperature, is the key mechanism behind the extremely high thermal robustness. Thicker W layer in the W(t)/Ta 1 nm cap layer makes the storage electrode of pMTJ stack highly robust against annealing up to […]

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 […]
