"Spintronics/Vertical elements of two-dimensional materials"

This research theme proposing a new vertical device by integrating current spintronics technology with two-dimensional materials in order to create next-generation spintronics technology. The aim is to integrate distinctive research from Japan, the UK, France, and the US.

1. Japan-UK collaboration
   The University of Cambridge in the UK has worldclass film production technology and theoretical analysis for two-dimensional materials.
2. Japan-France cooperation
   France's CNRS/Thales has been established spintronics basic theory, led by Dr. A. Fert, who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2007. In this research, we will contribute to the creation of new spintronic devices using advanced microfabrication facility for two-dimensional materials.
3. Japan-US cooperation
   Japanese team collaborate with Stanford University on biosensing research field as a new application possibility for spintronics devices.
