International Network for Spintronics: From Material Development to Novel Energy Efficient Technologies
Lead Research Organisation:
University of York
Department Name: Electronics
Abstract
The broad aim of this project is to demonstrate a new spintronic logic concept with low-energy consumption by developing a new magnetic material, designing a new logic circuit and characterising them for yield improvement based on our long-standing collaborations with Tohoku University in Japan specialised in material development and device production, Technische Universität Kaiserslautern in Germany focused on magneto-optical phenomena and magnonic logics, and Spintec in France dedicated for spintronic device production and evaluation. Based on the complementarity of these consortium members, we aim to achieve (1) over 200 man-days annual visits to Japan, (2) over 100 man-days annual visits to Germany and France, (3) six pump priming funds to foster new collaborative projects, (4) organisation of biannual research symposia in York to disseminate our achievements.

The symposium was held online using Zoom for the first time due to the coronavirus pandemic and travel restriction currently imposed. This has both advantages and disadvantages on the organisation of the symposium. As the advantages, we successfully attracted over 230 participants from 27 countries and encouraged exciting discussion. On the other hand, the online format limited to ask questions directly to presenters unfortunately, which was partially compensated by the networking time allocated at the end of sessions each day. |

| Results and Impact | This talk was given as a n invited talk at the "EPSRC International Network for Spintronics Kick-Off Meeting: From Material Development to Novel Energy Efficient Technologies" on 7 June 2021. The symposium was held online using Zoom for the first time due to the coronavirus pandemic and travel restriction currently imposed. This has both advantages and disadvantages on the organisation of the symposium. As the advantages, we successfully attracted over 230 participants from 27 countries and encouraged exciting discussion. On the other hand, the online format limited to ask questions directly to presenters unfortunately, which was partially compensated by the networking time allocated at the end of sessions each day. |
