Spintec recently teamed up with CNRS-Thales joint research unit UMPhy and China’s NIMTE to work on skyrmions. According to their results, the spin quasi-particles, which are heralded as the material for tomorrow’s magnetic memory, can be generated in transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) monolayers.   Their work focused on Janus MnSeTe and MnSTe TMDs: In these materials, […] >>

DNP* increases the sensitivity of NMR spectroscopy experiments by several orders of magnitude. Two teams of researchers at Irig recently leveraged instrumentation developed over a decade and protected by seven patents to increase NMR performance by a factor of ten. Now observations can be carried out at 35 K, rather than 100 K previously, for […] >>

Colorectal cancer surgeries are particularly prone to complications, with between 3% and 20% of patients affected by CAL, or colorectal anastomotic leakage. This infection, diagnosed an average of four to seven days post-op, is a major cause of mortality.  CEA-Leti is engaged in the EIT Exuchek project, which addresses this issue. The institute is developing […] >>

Researchers at Spintec won an ERC Proof of Concept grant for a SOT-MRAM memory fabrication process developed under an earlier ERC grant. The challenge here is the unusual profile of the memory’s free magnetic layer. Rather than being round, it has a number of angles. This unique geometry eliminates the need to use micromagnets, which […] >>

Startup Avalun, which calls the MINATEC High-Tech Building its home, released its Covid-19 antigen test a few days ago. This powerful growth driver will also help speed up the rollout of Avalun’s portable lab, LabPad® Evolution. At the start of 2020, Avalun had plans to roll out its LabPad® INR in six regions across France […] >>
