Description

This Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI) program will focus on creating and integrating a hybrid spintronics technology on a single monolithic chip. The multifaceted research effort will develop the capability to generate, control, and detect spin-based information in hybrid devices built from conventional semiconductor heterostructures, ferromagnetic metals, and ferromagnetic semiconductor materials. The MURI team will integrate these electronic, magnetic and photonic devices into a single multifunctional chip with memory, logic, and communications capability.
