Read moreA high gain flux concentrator greatly amplifies the sensitivity of a magnetic field sensor (October 16th, 2023)
The large magnetometers currently used onboard satellites for space exploration cannot be installed in the tiny nanosatellites (cubesat) that are envisioned for multipoint measurements. As a first step towards the realization of a miniature space magnetometer, Spintec has demonstrated a strong amplification of the sensitivity of a magnetic field sensor on chip. The current magnetometers […]

Read moreRecruiting a PhD to develop a skyrmion-based magnetic field sensor (May 12th, 2023)
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 […]
Read moreMAROT – An ANR project (January 01st, 2023)
MAROT stands for Low noise MAgnetometeR based On Tunnel junctions. It is a 42-months long ANR project (ANR-22-CE42-0020). The current boom in nanosatellites, which are revolutionizing space exploration, calls for the development of suitable miniature instruments. In particular, the extremely high-performance magnetometers used to date on-board satellite, such as search-coils or flux-gates, are heavy and […]
Read moreControlling skyrmion chirality with a gate voltage (December 01st, 2022)
Magnetic skyrmions are localized chiral spin textures, which offer great promise to store and process information at the nanoscale. The unique sense of rotation of their surrounding domain wall, called chirality, is resulting from the so-called Dzyaloshinskii−Moriya Interaction. C.E. Fillion et al. have managed the inversion of the skyrmion chirality by applying a gate voltage, […]
Read moreMasters thesis projects for Spring 2023 (September 21st, 2022)
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 […]
