Our vision is to trigger a revolution in low-power information and communication technologies in an energy-efficient society.
QuSpin´s objective is to develop the basic science that uses quantum entities such as the electron spin as information carriers in radically different ways. We aim at groundbreaking basic research that is crucial to the development of fast, high-capacity, material systems and tools for smaller and more power-efficient electronic devices.
The Chandrasekhar-Clogston limit normally places stringent conditions on the magnitude of the magnetic field that can coexist with spin-singlet superconductivity, restricting the critical induced Zeeman shift to a fraction of the superconducting gap...

Abstract
We study magnetotransport in heterostructures composed of the van der Waals antiferromagnet CrPS4 and the heavy metals Pt and Pd. In both types of devices, the transverse resistance (Rxy) signal reveals the spin-flop transition of CrPS4 and a strong anomalous Hall effect at temperatures up to 300 K...

Abstract
Topologically nontrivial spin textures, such as skyrmions and dislocations, display emergent electrodynamics and can be moved by spin currents over macroscopic distances. These unique properties and their nanoscale size make them excellent candidates for the development of next-generation race-track memory and unconventional computing. A major challenge for these applications...
We have one vacant PhD position available for hiring from August 2023 at the Center of Quantum Spintronics which is part of the Department of Physics, NTNU in Trondheim, Norway.
The candidates will join and become part of an international research environment in quantum condensed matter theory and experiments.
The PhD position has a duration of three years with the possibility of up to one-year extension with 25% teaching duties in agreement with the department.
