Spin-charge conversion and spin caloritronics at hybrid organic-inorganic interfaces (SC2)

Start date: Aug 1, 2014, End date: Jul 31, 2020,

Organic semiconductors are enabling flexible, large-area optoelectronic devices, such as organic light-emitting diodes, transistors, and solar cells. Due to their exceptionally long spin lifetimes, these carbon-based materials could also have an important impact on spintronics, where carrier spins, rather than charges, play a key role in transmitting, processing and storing information. However, t ...

Insulator Spintronics (InSpin)

Start date: Mar 1, 2014, End date: Feb 28, 2017,

InSpin will develop revolutionary nano-scale insulator spintronics that can replace or be integrated with conventional electronics and function at ambient temperatures. The innovation lies in the use of spin currents that in magnetic insulators are decoupled from charge currents and propagate with extremely low power dissipation. InSpin's objectives are to provide a disruptive technology that is s ...

Molecular Quantum Spintronics (MoQuaS)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2016,

MoQuaS aims at developing devices and protocols to read out and process quantum information using individual molecular spins embedded in electronic circuits. To this end, prototypical hybrid nano-devices addressing single molecular spins will be designed and reliable methods for their realization will be developed. Core of such nano-architectures are magnetic molecules, specifically functionalized ...

Magnetic Nanowires for High Density Non Volatile Memories (MAGWIRE)

Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Sep 30, 2013,

Fast, high capacity, low form factor and low power non-volatile memories are a crucial enabler of today's ICT. They are already an important part of all electronic systems, representing a growing market segment, and should increase their importance in the future en route towards the "Storage everywhere" society. The market today is divided between Flash NAND and hard disk, which both face severe l ...
