Quantum Acoustics – Surface Acoustic Waves meets Solid State Qubits


May 17th-20th 2016

This workshop was organized to promote the new field of quantum acoustics ‐ a phonon analogue of quantum optics on chip – where single phonons in the form of high‐frequency surface acoustic waves (SAWs) propagate in acoustic waveguides coupling remote qubits. The phonons can also be captured in high‐Q cavities for storage and to increase coupling with the qubits. In order to motivate scientist to collaborate and to boost quantum acoustics, the organizers brought together three scientific fields which have not interacted substantially before, i.e.:
1) SAW, 2) Solid State Spin Qubits and 3) Superconducting Qubits

Workshop on Antiferromagnetic Spintronics

September 26th - 30th 2016

The emerging field of antiferromagnetic spintronics focuses on making antiferromagnets active elements of spintronic devices. From an application point of view, it emphasizes how to read, manipulate, and store information in these systems robustly. From the basic science point of view, it exploits the larger range of spin physics in this material due to the higher complexity of the ordered phase and order parameters.

New connections with the current ferromagnetic spintronics research have created entirely new ways of rethinking spin phenomena in antiferromagnets, while still building on long standing pioneering works in antiferromagnetic materials.

Although some prevailing concepts map directly between these fields, in many important instances the intuition built in the ferromagnetic spintronics systems can lead us astray in the antiferromagnetic systems.

The recent successes in this new area and rapid theoretical developments make this the right time for a conference on the subject.

Physics Status Solidi Focus Issue on Antiferromagnetic Spintronics: Due to your active research in the field of antiferromagnetic materials we cordially invite you to submit a man-uscript to our forthcoming Focus Issue on Antiferromagnetic Spintronics. The Focus Issue will be published in physica status solidi – Rapid Research Letters, i.e. pss (RRL), on the basis of the Workshop on Antiferromagnetic Spintronics in collaboration with Prof. Dr. Jairo Sinova, Prof. Dr. Tomas Jungwirth and Prof. Dr. Olena Gomonay as guest editors.

The focus issue aims not only to summarize the recent progress in the rapidly developing field of antiferromag-netic spintronics but mostly important to present future perspectives in the field. It should provide a snapshot of the state-of-the-art, both experimental and theoretical, for both experienced and young researchers inter-ested in the subject.

You may either write a short overview/review article (6-15 pages long) or submit your latest original results as a letter (4 pages long). For details please click here.

Quantum Spintronics: Spin Transport Through Quantum Magnetic Materials

September 21st - 23rd 2016

The field of magnon spintronics and the field of quantum magnetism have seen tremendous progress in recent years with many break-throughs in new concepts, new techniques, and new materials. Magnon spintronics has demonstrated electrical and thermal control over spin currents through magnetic insulators in contact with normal metals. Almost all this progress has been limited to a single material magnetic insultator YIG, hence limiting the outlook of the field. In Quantum Magnetism recent developments in scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) now permit probing and fabricating spin chains and many other artificial spin systems, providing a new ground to explore quantum magnetism phenomena, as well as a much larger spectrum of quantum magnetic materials to explore.

This workshop brings together these two communities, magnon spintronics and quantum magnetism, to explore new directions that exploit each others strengths. The goals of the workshop are:

1. For the quantum magnetism community to get up to speed on the recent developments in electrical control and detection of spin currents through magnetic insulators.
2. For the spintronics community to learn about new quantum magnetic materials that may host phases with exotic spin transport properties, such as spin superfluids and Bose glasses.
Topics include the spin Seebeck effect, spin pumping in ferromagnet/normal metal heterostructures, magnon Bose-Einstein condensation and spin superfluidity, spin and heat transport through magnetic insulators.

Workshop on "Spin Orbit Coupling and Spin Mechanics"


October 23rd - October 24th 2015 at the SPICE Center

The 29th REIMEI and ERATO-SQR workshop focused on effects of the spin-orbit interaction and the coupling of the spin and lattice degrees of freedom in magnetic nanostructures.

The spin Hall effect has moved into the mainstream of magnetism by generating so-called spin-orbit torques on proximity magnets and being an efficient spin current detector. The electrical and thermal actuation of the magnetization of insulators with extremely high quality factors of the magnetization dynamics has focused attention on the bosonic degrees of freedom in spintronics and the importance of the spin-lattice and spin-rotation couplings.

The scope of the workshop covered the following topics:

  • The magnon-phonon interaction in a magnetic insulator (YIG) to better understand acoustically induced spin pumping and the spin Seebeck effect.
  • Materials with large spin-orbit interaction examined by combining density functional theory in the local density approximation with the quantum Monte Carlo technique.
  • The effects of spin-orbit interaction on the magnetization dynamics of ferro-, feri-, and antiferro-magnets and their heterostructures.
  • Spin current generation in solids and fluids.
