Funded Activity Summary

Vector Magnetic Field Facility for Nanoscale Spintronic Materials and Device Research. Electronic devices underpin a trillion dollar industry worldwide and are an essential part of modern life. Spintronics (spin-electronics) is an emergent technology that combines the electrical and magnetic properties of electrons to represent and process information. Spintronic chips are expected to be fast, versatile, capable of simultaneous data storage and processing, while at the same time consuming less energy. Industry analysts suggest the spintronic market will exceed $10 billion. This facility will provide the critical infrastructure needed to study the electronic and magnetic properties of nanostructured materials, providing the underpinning knowledge to develop the next generation of spintronic devices.
