CURRENT:

• Quantum materials for control of spin-orbit torques, SHENG II , Polish-Chinese bilateral project, National Science Center (NCN), (2022 – 2025), PI: Witold Skowroński,

The proposal seeks to develop extremely low-power spintronic based nonvolatile memory and logic technologies with infinite endurance, through experimental studies of new quantum materials and devices that can greatly increase the efficiency of magnetization switching. With these materials, we will realize physical phenomena and device functionalities that are not possible in traditional polycrystalline metal-based spintronic. Range of hybrid materials will be designed, synthesized, dynamically tunned structurally and electronically, and integrated into the state-of-the-art MRAM devices.

• Spin Hall effect in antiferromagnets (SPINORBITRONICS), OPUS 12, National Science Center (NCN) , (2017 – 2022), PI: prof. dr hab. Tomasz Stobiecki, http://spinorbitronics.agh.edu.pl

The aim of the project is both theoretical and experimental investigation of hybrid antiferromagnet/ferromagnet (AFM/FM) structures for maximization of spin currents generated using spin Hall effect. Within a project, test structures consisting of different combination of buffer/AFM/FM mutlilayers will be fabricated, where the coexistence for spin-orbit torque, magnetoresistance and spin Hall effect will enable the design of a new class of spintronic circuits

• Limits of noise and detectivity of tunneling spintronic sensors, OPUS 21, National Science Center (NCN) , (2022 – 2025), PI: Piotr Wiśniowski

The aim of the project is to investigate the limits of the noise reduction and increase the detectivity of tunneling sensors by changing their magnetic anisotropy. Project research will focus on reducing magnetic noise, minimizing the noise increase, and improving sensor detectivity.
