EASTT Workshop 28 – 29 June 2018

The aim of this workshop is to bring together leading researchers from academia and industry to discuss the underlying science of spin transfer torque, and the technological opportunities that it presents for new active magnetic devices.  Particular emphasis will be placed upon spin orbit torques (SOTs) for lateral transport devices, and spin transfer oscillators (STO) for tuneable microwave emission.  The workshop is funded in part by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) grant EP/P008550/1 and is scheduled immediately after the International Conference on Microwave Magnetics (ICMM) 2018 that will held in Exeter from 24-27 June 2018.

Please note that rooms in Holland Hall and Ransom Pickard will no longer be reserved for the EASTT workshop from the 7th June. 

If you have not yet booked accommodation, please register and book accommodation by the 7th of June to secure accommodation in Holland Hall or Ransom Pickard.  After the 7th of June accommodation can be booked through the Event Exeter website on a first-come-first-served basis.
