On Tuesday May 14, 2024 at 14:00 we have the pleasure to welcome Prof. Stephan ROCHE (ICREA, Catalan Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (ICN2), CSIC, BIST). He will give us a seminar entitled:

Ten Years of 2D Materials based Spintronics Research: Highlights and Future

Place: Bâtiment GreEn-ER, 21 Avenue des Martyrs, Grenoble

Video conference: https://univ-grenoble-alpes-fr.zoom.us/j/98769867024?pwd=dXNnT3RMeThjYStybGVQSUN0TVdJdz09
Meeting ID: 987 6986 7024 Passcode: 025918

Abstract: In this talk, I will review more than 10 years of research activities of concerning the exploration of the potential of two-dimensional materials and van der Waals heterostructures for spintronic applications. Starting from the first demonstration of long spin diffusion length in graphene to most recent breakthroughs of active spin devices, we will discuss the progress achieved within the Spintronics workpackage of the Graphene Flagship (from 2013-2023), highlighting the main milestones of the field and the current perspective and challenges concerning the use of 2D materials for spintronic applications as recently presented by a consortium of leading groups in the field (H. Yang et al. Nature 606 (7915), 663-673 (2022)).

I acknowledge the European Union Seventh Framework Program under Grant Agreement No. 881603 Graphene Flagship.
