SPINTEC laboratory (Grenoble, France), in collaboration with CEA-LETI, has currently two postdoc position openings to work on theory (12 month) and on experiment (18 month) of coupled oscillator arrays for implementing neuromorphic and unconventional computing schemes. The candidates should have experience in any of the following areas: spintronics, (spin-torque-driven) magnetization dynamics, neuromorphic computing, dynamical systems, […]

Prof Yoshichika OTANI is invited Professor of the University Grenoble Alpes from August to October 2021, hosted at SPINTEC laboratory. His research collaboration will deal with the Studies on the Dynamic Magnon-Phonon Coupling in Spin-Mechanical devices, involving the spin insulatronics team. Prof. Otani will also be lecturing at the European School on Magnetism 2021, led […]

SPINTEC is opening a tenured position for a supporting engineer for the epitaxy of 2D materials. The engineer will be part of SPINTEC’s 2D spintronics team, with the objective of developing and managing an ambitious epitaxial growth platform being put together, as well as developing the associated characterisation tools, and serving researchers both at the […]

Our colleague Jean-Philippe Attané, Associate Professor at the University Grenoble Alpes, was appointed Senior Member of the Institut Universitaire de France (IUF), beginning from October 1, 2021 for a period of five years. The IUF distinguishes every year a small number of university professors for their research excellence and international recognition, providing theses members additional […]

Our colleague Hélène Béa, associate professor at the University Grenoble Alpes, was appointed Junior Member of the Institut Universitaire de France (IUF) beginning from October 1, 2021 for a period of five years.

The goal of project CRYMCO is to optimize MRAM cell concepts for operation in cryogenic temperature environments. The project will explore applications for storage in conventional and quantum information processing. In the first case, MRAM with low energy dissipation for cryogenic environments could result in power savings by operating at low temperature, when the cost/power […]

Arne Brataasa, Bart van Wees, Olivier Klein, Grégoire de Loubens, Michel Viret, Physics Reports 885, 1-27 (2020) Spin insulatronics covers efforts to generate, detect, control, and utilize high-fidelity pure spin currents and excitations inside magnetic insulators. Here, the authors review recent developments to realize electric and thermal generation, manipulation, detection, and control of pure spin […]

SPINTEC is opening a Professorship position, with competition to take place during Spring 2021. The research scope is theory and numerical simulation, covering all aspects from fundamental to applied spintronics in the broadest sense. The research focus is the modeling of specific properties induced by spin-orbit effects, with the aim on the one hand to […]

A key component of artificial intelligence is neuromorphic computing, which represents the endeavor to replicate the human brain to perform efficiently very complex tasks such as pattern recognition. Until now, almost all practical implementations of deep neural-networks are emulated using nanostructured electronic components that try to replicate the brain’s volume architecture on a surface. However, […]
