Read moreLocal setting of spin textures in antiferromagnets (December 11th, 2023)
The setting of spin textures in antiferromagnets (AFMs) provides a potential route to antiferromagnetic spintronic devices with non-collinear spin states such as skyrmions, bubbles and domain walls. In this work, a consortium of physicists from SPINTEC and York establish a solution for overcoming the challenge of nucleating localized real-space spin textures in AFMs, promoting the […]

Read moreIn plane reorientation induced single laser pulse magnetization reversal (October 27th, 2023)
We demonstrate that single pulse all optical helicity independent switching can be generalized for a large range of rare earth–transition metal multilayers. The threshold fluence for switching is observed to be independent of the pulse duration and, at high laser intensities, concentric ring domain structures are induced, unveiling multiple fluence thresholds. These striking switching features […]
Read moreSpiking neuron based on magnetic tunnel junction with dual free layer (October 27th, 2023)
We demonstrate that a perpendicular magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) is capable of emulating an artificial spiked neuron. The magnetic stack has been designed so that the MTJ has two free layers, whose magnetization can be driven in a windmill-like dynamic by the spin transfer torque. The output-spiking rate is tunable by the dc bias voltage. […]

Read moreEpitaxial van der Waals heterostructures of Cr2Te3 on 2D material (August 01st, 2023)
For the future integration of 2D materials in spintronic devices (sensors, memories…), the ability to grow van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures combining 2D magnets, high mobility, high spin-orbit coupling (SOC) or topological materials on large areas constitutes a real challenge today. Here, by using molecular beam epitaxy in the van der Waals regime, we could […]
Read morePost-doctoral position – Spintorque nano-oscillators for smart communication and unconventional computing systems (June 23rd, 2023)
SPINTEC has currently several postdoc positions open to work on spintransfer-torque nano-oscillators based on magnetic tunnel junctions. Spintorque driven excitations within magnetic tunnel junctions show a large range of interesting, non-linear dynamic effects that are promising for low power implementations within wireless communication or unconventional computing systems. The different projects address at the same time […]
