Les recherches de Ioan-Mihai Miron en spintronique portent sur des nouveaux systèmes magnétiques de stockage de l’information. Menées au laboratoire Spintec, à Grenoble, elles sont encore jeunes — elles datent de 2011. Pourtant, elles représentent déjà un potentiel majeur pour faire face aux limites actuelles que rencontres les technologies de mémoire de nos ordinateurs. Elles […]

Spintronics has become a mature technology for applications, such as magnetic field sensing and solid-state memories. However, existing concepts are almost exclusively based on planar processes such as thin film deposition and patterning. Extending spintronics to 3D devices would provide new integrated functionalities such as three-dimensional magnetic field sensors, and also open prospects for an […]

C3DS stands for Chemistry for three-dimensional Spintronics, and is a 36-month ANR-DFG project (2019-2022). Spintronics has become a mature technology for applications, such as magnetic field sensing and solid-state memories. However, it is almost exclusively based on planar processes such as thin film deposition and patterning. Extending spintronics to 3D devices would provide new integrated […]

We gather annually a synopsis of key Spintec selected publications and news in a booklet. You may download them on this page.

Bernard DIENY receives the 2018 IEEE Carrier Achievement Award for contributions to spintronics applications including spin-valves and MRAMs and for strengthening the relationship between magnetics and microelectronics communities. The Award will be handed out at the upcoming MMM/Intermag conference in Washington in January 2019. Through this award Bernard Diény becomes a life member in the […]

We have the pleasure to host Steve BLUNDELL in Grenoble for two days of lecturing on 27-28 November 2018. Steve BLUNDELL is University Professor for Physics in Oxford, with wide recognition in research and teaching in condensed matter, in particular on magnetism-related topics (http://users.ox.ac.uk/~sjb). Among others, he authored the widely-used textbook Magnetism in Condensed Matter […]

THIS POSITION HAS BEEN FILLED Keywords: 3D spintronics, magnetic nanotube, magnetic domain wall, curvature, electron holography, magnetic imaging, core-shell Topic Three-dimensional spintronics is a fast emerging topic [1]. On the fundamental side this opens pathways for novel spin configurations and magnetization dynamics, owing to the possibility of three-dimensional spin textures in nanowires and nanotubes [2], […]

Rana Alhalabi has been awarded of the best poster prize at the 18th Non-Volatile Memory Technology Symposium that took place in October 2018 in Sendai, Japan. The title of the poster was “High density SOT-MRAM memory array based on a single transistor”. Based on a 32kb memory, this work has shown that replacing one of […]

In the frame of the French national ANR project “SPINNET”, SPINTEC is offering an 18 month postdoctoral or clean room engineer position for the nanofabrication of arrays of vortex based spin torque oscillator devices. The objective is to demonstrate a proof of concept to use vortex magnetic tunnel junction devices as “microwave-to-DC” signal converters with […]
