We’re looking for motivated young researchers to join us in exploring magnetic and spintronic thin films and devices, from fundamental physics to device-level phenomena.https://lnkd.in/g-MwDWsEFor the project associated with this open position, we focus on magnetic thin-film devices utilizing magnetization dynamics induced by spin-transfer torque and spin–orbit torque, as well as on related materials such as magnetic and spin Hall materials. We are especially interested in candidates with experience in spintronic materials and devices who enjoy thin-film growth, device fabrication, and magnetic/transport characterization.Recent achievements related to this open position include:🔹 Communications Physics (2026)Injection-locking analysis experimentally distinguishes coupled and single oscillation modes in spin-torque oscillators, providing a sensitive probe of dynamic magnetic coupling for spintronic device development.https://lnkd.in/gppfSkbs🔹 Scientific Reports (2025)A Co₂FeGa₀.₅Ge₀.₅ Heusler alloy enables low-current spin-transfer-torque switching in CPP-GMR devices through reduced damping and enhanced spin-dependent scattering.https://lnkd.in/gxi5MgPF🔹 Physical Review Materials (2024)Mn₂VAl Heusler alloy thin films exhibit negative spin polarization originating from a majority-spin band gap, tunable via composition and chemical ordering, which give the highest inverse MR ratio in CPP-GMR ever reported .https://lnkd.in/gyMPaPUfIf you are interested, please feel free to contact my colleague, Dr. Hirofumi Suto.We look forward to hearing from researchers interested in advancing magnetic and spintronic materials and devices together with us.
