👏 Very interesting #graphene #spintronic paper published from Prof. Ivan J. Vera Marun's group at The University of Manchester 👇 ••• According to high-density memory requirement, deterministic switching of perpendicular magnetization by the out-of-plane polarized spin current induced spin-orbit torque is highly desired. Previous study has shown the possibility to generate out-of-plane injected spin polarisation in lateral devices with anomalous spin Hall effect, magnetocrystalline anisotropy within Van der Waals magnets, or generation within induced spin-orbit torque graphene itself via proximity-induced spin-orbit coupling. All these make it much more complex to design relevant spintronic devices. ••• In order to explore relatively simple and effective method to define spin polarisation in spintronic devices, Prof. Ivan J. Vera-Marun’s group apply the geometry of magnetic nanowires, which define 1D contacts to an encapsulated graphene channel, to introduce an out-of-plane component in the polarisation of spin carriers. This relatively simple approach provides an alternative method of spin vector magnetometry that relies only on pure spin signal, enabling a quantitative analysis of a nanoscale magnetic region. ••• Please read more in Nature ➡️https://lnkd.in/eBBwN5s4 ••• #research #2dmaterials #sustainability #magnet #quantum #nanowires Graphene Flagship

🤔 Are you curious about spintronics? Spin-orbit fields? Wonder how 2D materials can influence spin-orbit fields? Good! Prof. Jaroslav Fabian and Klaus Zollner from University of Regensburg, recently published a paper in Europhysics News to explain how two-dimensional materials revolutionize spintronics for next-generation information technology. Read the article ➡️https://lnkd.in/dN3hjxNE ••• #graphene #SpinOrbitCoupling #research #2dmaterials #spintronics #sustainability #magnet #quantum Graphene Flagship

💥 Exciting news via published paper ‘All-2D CVD-grown semiconductor field-effect transistors with van der Waals graphene contacts‘ 👇 Graphene, together with two-dimensional (2D) semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) for 2D field-effect transistor (FETs), has demonstrated novel electronic and optoelectronic functionalities. At the same time, chemical vapor deposition (CVD)-grown 2D semiconductor FETs strongly depend on the quality of the materials of CVD process, their interfaces and contact properties. 👇 Prof. Saroj Dash’s group from Chalmers University of Technology has combined CVD-grown 2D semiconductor MoS2 and graphene in van der Waals (vdW) heterostructure to show low and tuneable Schottky barrier and contact resistances, high ON current and good channel mobility. It is confirmed that the CVD-grown 2D materials can endure complex fabrication processes and exhibit good charge transport properties. 👇 This work was led by Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden and collaborated with the researchers from Friedrich Schiller University Jena, Germany, Homi Bhabha National Institute from India, and Institute of Physics. 👇 #spintronics #graphene #sustainability #magnet #quantum Please read more in the paper published in Nature 👇

Timeline of Spintronics I am heading to the Institute of Science and Technology Austria to give a colloquium on 2D Spintronics and have prepared a Spintronics historical timeline which I would like to share. Certainly, the choice of primary events/phenomena/discoveries is subjective, with many left off the chart: spin relaxation mechanisms (Elliott-Yafet, Dyakonov-Perel, Bir-Aronov-Pikus, resonant magnetic impurities), charge-to-spin conversion, spin lasers, spin-orbit torque (investigated by our 2DSPIN-TECH consortium), etc. 2D materials offer excellent opportunities to study spintronics phenomena, primarily because unlike in conventional materials, electronic, magnetic, optical, structural, and spin properties can be tuned by van der Waals engineering - straining, stacking, twisting, gating. Much of it is explored in our DFG-funded Collaborative Research Centre SFB 1277 University of Regensburg and SPP2244. To learn more about vdW spin engineering in 2D materials, look up the technical review https://lnkd.in/dtk53BFj or our recent essay https://lnkd.in/d-ybhnzG
