Spin manipulation is one of the most critical challenges to realize spin-based logic devices and spintronic circuits. ICN2 researchers Dinh Van Tuan and ICREA Research Professor Stephan Roche, from the Theoretical and Computational Nanoscience group reveal that certain impurities such as fluorine ad-atoms could result in a remarkable variability of spin transport characteristics in graphene, as published recently in Physical Review Letters.

“Moore’s law” approaches its limit. The idea of producing the world’s first integrated flexoelectric microelectromechanical system (MEMS) on silicon was published week in Nature Nanotechnology and gained a big attention. The international work was led by researchers from the ICN2 Oxide Nanoelectronics Group.
Monday, 23 November 2015
Dr. Sander J. Wezenberg, from the Stratingh Institute for Chemistry, University of Groningen (The Netherlands), was invited by Dr. Jordi Fraxedas to offer an ICN2 Seminar entitled “Photochromic molecular switches and motors as tools for adaptive nanosystems”.

“Moore’s law”, according to which chip performance would double approximately every two years, approaches its limit: soon it would be impossible to produce smaller transistors. A new quest, nick-named “more than Moore”, aims to add new functionalities within each chip by integrating smart materials on top of their silicon base. Researchers from the ICN2 Oxide Nanoelectronics Group led an international collaboration which has produced the world’s first integrated flexoelectric microelectromechanical system (MEMS) on silicon. Their results have been published this week in Nature Nanotechnology.
