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 moreNon-volatile electric control of spin-orbit torques in an electron gas (August 01st, 2023)
Spin-orbit torques (SOTs) have the potential to manipulate magnetization using in-plane current, and two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) provide a highly efficient spin-to-charge current interconversion. This paper reports the non-volatile electric-field control of SOTs in an oxide-based Rashba-Edelstein 2DEG. We recently reported a significant progress in the path towards a next generation of memory devices […]
Read moreReview – From Early Theories of Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya Interactions in Metallic Systems to Today’s Novel Roads (June 09th, 2023)
Albert Fert, Mairbek Chshiev, André Thiaville and Hongxin Yang, J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 92, 081001 (2023). In this Review article, the authors briefly introduce the research history of DMI and its significance in the field of modern spintronics. Since the early 1960’s, the discovery of Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction (DMI) helped to explain the physical mechanisms […]
Read moreA new type of magnetic sensor based on the spin transfer torque using 50-100nm diameter perpendicular magnetic tunnel junctions was recently reported in the IEEE Sensors Journal. The paper demonstrates the magnetic field sensing principle, patented by Spintec in 2020, while also describing possible read-out methods and their associated signal conditioning electronics. Improvements over conventional […]

Read moreGradient-Induced Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya Interaction (April 17th, 2023)
The Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction (DMI) arising in the magnetic systems with broken inversion symmetry plays an essential role in topological spintronics. Using atomistic spin model simulations of an intriguing type of DMI emerging in the films with composition gradient (g-DMI), it is demonstrated that that both the strength and chirality of g-DMI can be controlled by […]
