Spintronic devices towards advanced computing framework

Spintronic devices manipulate the electron’s spin degree of freedom to provide excellent features such as non-volatility, high speed, high density and low power consumption, which attracted intensive attention in the “post Moore’s Law era”. Traditional spintronic devices based on ferromagnetic materials are mainly fabricated towards memory applications. Beyond that, our research focuses on the magnetization dynamics in the emerging material systems with antiferromagnetic coupling, including synthetic antiferromagnets (SAFs), ferrimagnets (FIMs) as well as antiferromagnets (AFMs). Based on these, we design spintronic devices that can be used to implement high-performance unconventional computing such as reconfigurable computing in memory (CIM), reservoir computing (RC), and neuromorphic computing. These works demonstrate the potential of spintronic devices for applications in next-generation advanced computing frameworks.
