History Bernard Diény is a physicist whose research has focused on nanomagnetism and spin electronics throughout his career. In the early 90s, Bernard Diény made a major contribution to IBM’s introduction of spin valve technology based on giant magnetoresistance (GMR) effects. This revolutionized read head elements in hard disks for magnetic recording. His subsequent contributions […]
