Spintronics Device Lab
Machine-translated · View original
The lab aims to create new functional devices that make use of the electron's spin.

AboutAbout the lab
Future devices opened up by spin
The Spintronics Device Lab conducts research aimed at building devices with new functions that use the spin of electrons.
Drawing on everything from knowledge of magnetism to the latest spintronic phenomena, the lab works on creating such devices.
Its research is built on three pillars: creating spin-based information resources, spin thermoelectric phenomena, and artificial magnetic materials based on unusual magnetic coupling.
On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Yuasa Lab."
Key terms
- Spintronics
- A field that deals with conduction phenomena in which the spin of the electron, in addition to the electron itself, plays the leading role.
- MRAM
- Short for magnetic random access memory. It is non-volatile memory, meaning that stored data is not lost when the power is turned off.
- Skyrmion
- A magnetic structure that has attracted attention as a topological material. It is expected to serve as a new information carrier.
