Charged domain walls in BaTiO3 single-crystals

Úterý, 20.10.2015 10:00 - 11:00

Dr. P. Bednyakov (École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Switzerland)

Recently observed properties of charged ferroelectric domain walls (CDWs) make these structures promising for application in future electronics. It was demonstrated experimentally that the quasi two-dimensional electron gas is present at head-to-head CDWs [1]. The CDWs are therefore good conductors that can be moved by an external electric field. As suggested by theory [2] and experiment [3] CDWs with very low spacing may cause the enhancement of piezoelectric and dielectric properties. However, the problem of controlled regular growth and formation of CDWs is not well understood.

In silico studies of electronic current in nano-junctions: Exciting atomic motion

Čtvrtek, 22.10.2015 15:00 - 16:00

Mads Brandbyge (Department of micro and nanotechnology & Center for Nanostructured Graphene (CNG), Technical University of Denmark (DTU), Denmark)

In the Landauer approach to nanoscale transport the electrons are assumed to bypass a conducting junction ballistically and equilibrate through energy exchange in the electrodes.

Interplay of charge, spin and thermal imbalances in normal-metal/ferromagnet bilayers

Pátek, 23.10.2015 10:00 - 11:00

Can Onur Avci (ETH Zurich)

Recent demonstrations of magnetization switching driven by current-induced spin-orbit torques (SOTs) have drawn considerable attention in the field of spintronics. The SOTs are associated with the spin Hall and interfacial effects, and have been found to occur in a variety of normal-metal/ferromagnet systems. In this talk I will present harmonic transverse (Hall) and longitudinal (magnetoresistance) measurements on a variety of normal-metal/ferromagnet systems with a special focus on Pt/Co, Ta/Co layers with in-plane magnetization. I will discuss a new magnetoresistance effect (unidirectional spin Hall magnetoresistance) that we have recently discovered.

Manipulation of magnetization by spin-orbit torques

Pátek, 23.10.2015 14:00 - 15:00

Kevin Garello (ETH Zurich)

Recent demonstrations of perpendicular magnetization switching induced by in-plane current injection in ferromagnetic heterostructures have drawn attention to a class of spin torques based on orbital-to-spin momentum transfer (SOTs).
After describing the main spin-orbit interactions observed in ferromagnetic heterostructures and some of our latest measurements, I will present their straightforward impact on magnetic memory technologies.
