Workshop Overview

With the end of Moore’s law in sight, many emerging technologies looking to fill the ensuing power vacuum. Spintronics is one such technology and shows great potential in the post-Moore era. Since the discovery of Giant Magneto-Resistance (GMR) effect in 1988, spintronics has achieved a rapid progress and has resulted a significant impact on human lives in the last 30 years. After the first commercialization of spintronics on the read heads of hard-disk-drivers, recent advance has expanded this technology to the whole microelectronics community in terms of sensors, memories, oscillators and processors, as well as to the computer architecture community.  

The 4th Workshop on Spintronics Memory and Logic (SML) & the 5th Anniversary Symposium of Fert Beijing Research Institute will be held from May 20th to May 22nd 2019 in Beihang University, Beijing, China. It will focus on new type of spintronic devices such as magnetic tunnel junctions with interfacial perpendicular magnetic anisotropy, electric-field-controlled magnetic anisotropy, interfacial DMI induced skyrmions, spin wave based logic devices, all spin logic, and so on.
