We propose the concept of a core-shell composite structure coupled antiparallel via dipolar interaction, as the storage layer in perpendicular-shape-anisotropy magnetic random access memory (PSA MRAM). Benefits compared with a standard PSA MRAM include a reduced write time and the stray field. CoFeB core with a Co shell (height 8 nm; diameters 14 and 20 […]

Magnetic skyrmions are magnetic nanobubbles which are envisioned as bits of informations in our computers. A team from the Spintec laboratory in Grenoble has demonstrated that they can be moved by electric current at record speeds, up to 900 m/s, in antiferromagnetic stacks. These results hold promise for the use of skyrmions to store and […]

By using THz spintronic emission, we could study the spin-charge conversion mechanisms in 2D materials. High crystalline quality 2D materials are grown by molecular beam epitaxy on large area and CoFeB is deposited on top using soft UHV sputtering to obtain sharp interfaces. Such model system allows us to identify and quantify the spin-charge conversion […]

The setting of spin textures in antiferromagnets (AFMs) provides a potential route to antiferromagnetic spintronic devices with non-collinear spin states such as skyrmions, bubbles and domain walls. In this work, a consortium of physicists from SPINTEC and York establish a solution for overcoming the challenge of nucleating localized real-space spin textures in AFMs, promoting the […]
