By performing transport simulations on carefully derived Wannier tight-binding models, Janus chromium-based transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD) monolayers are found to exhibit a spin-orbit torque (SOT) performance comparable to the most efficient two-dimensional materials, while additionally allowing for field-free perpendicular magnetization switching, due to their reduced in-plane symmetry.   The spin–orbit torque (SOT) mechanism represents an innovative […]

Building a ubiquitous high-speed Internet from anywhere in the world or a long-range quantum network are two technological challenges that both require the development of a phase-sensitive transducer that can interconvert information from microwave frequencies at which wireless networks or quantum computers operate to optical frequencies, the optimal telecommunications band for long-distance information exchange. However, […]

Unbiased random bitstreams are essential for encryption, secure communication, and unconventional computing, yet true randomness without bias remains challenging in hardware. By harnessing nanoscale thermal magnetization fluctuations in spintronic nano-oscillators, the AI and RF teams at SPINTEC and collaborators introduce a new approach to generating fully unbiased bitstreams. Thermal fluctuations provide an efficient and almost […]
