Position: Skyrmions are circular magnetic domains of (sub-)micron size with increasing interest to the scientific community, considering to use them for information encoding. The aim of this thesis is to exploit the potential of skyrmions in a new way: developing a magnetic field sensor. Indeed, the response of skyrmions to the magnetic field perpendicular to […]

Spintec laboratory is opening a four years engineer researcher position in the framework of the PEPR electronics (part of France 2030 strategy) – project EMCOM (emerging memories for computing).   Context: The cost of transferring information between different layers of storage and computing units now dominates the energy performance of conventional processors. This has created […]

Position: The objective of the PhD project is to explore disruptive fabrication routes, cell and material designs to lift the two bottlenecks, related to fabrication and efficiency of the write operation with a spin-polarized current. While the motivation and objective is to give a real application potential to the proof of concept achieved so far, […]

Context: SPINTEC opens a R&D Engineer position for developing magnetic multilayer stacks on a new fully automated ultra-high vacuum sputtering tool for 100 mm wafers, developed in-house. The work will be carried out within the “Materials” team and in a close collaboration with researchers, PhDs and postdoctoral fellows. Position: The mission will consist in: discussing […]

Context: In the frame a European project, SPINTEC has an opening for a postdoctoral position to develop rf detectors for IoT applications. The project goal is to improve the rf-to-dc conversion efficiency of specific magnetic tunnel junctions and to develop demonstrator applications. Position: The tasks are varied and will allow to acquire diverse expertise in […]

The recruited person will carry out his research at SPINTEC Laboratory affiliated with UGA, CEA, CNRS, Grenoble INP-UGA in a very promising field, linked to […]

Context: CEA has recently committed to an ambitious, long-term, EU-driven research project focused on materials innovation in order to implement green and digital transitions in a sustainable way and inclusive for society. The accelerated development of 2D materials answers the need for innovative spintronics with controlled amounts of materials. An essential aspect is getting closer […]

You find here the list of proposals for Master-2 internships to take place at Spintec during Spring 2023. In most cases, these internships are intended to be suitable for a longer-term PhD work. Interested Master-1 students are also encouraged to apply, as well as students not phased for a Spring internship, especially those coming from […]

Title: Design for memory/logic devices Keywords: Design, post-CMOS electronics, spintronics, architectures, ferroelectrics, magneto-electric spin-orbit Summary:Spintronics devices involve ferromagnetic elements with high switching energies. Contrastingly, the polarization of ferroelectrics can be easily switched by an electric field, at energies typically 1000 times lower. As recently demonstrated by Intel, this makes ferroelectrics good candidates for ultralow-power post-CMOS […]
