Title:Integrated Spintronic Devices: Sensors, Isolators and Magnetic Memories

Speaker:Prof. Zheng-Hong. Qian (Hangzhou Dianzi University)

Time: 10:00am, April 28, 2012

Venue:Salon Room, Institute of Semiconductors, CAS

Abstract：Since the discovery of the Giant Magnetoresistance (GMR) effect two decades ago, extensive research has been conducted on spintronic materials including GMR multilayers and their device applications. In this talk, integrated spintronic devices including GMR/MTJ sensors, magnetic isolators and magnetic random access memories (MRAMs) are reviewed from a perspective of materials, design and fabrication as well as devices functionalities. Presented will also be the progress of commercialization of integrated spintronic devices at joint efforts of Center for Integrated Spintronic Devices (CISD, Hangzhou Dianzi University) and SPINIC Inc.
