This first joint Taiwan-Spain workshop on "2D Materials and Interfaces for Spintronics" will take place in Barcelona, from October 23 to 25. It will be held by the Catalan Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (ICN2). The workshop is co-organized by ICN2 and the National Center for Theoretical Sciences (NCTS).
The talks will cover a wide range of topics such as new spin-orbit coupled materials and interfaces (including functionalized graphene, 2D material heterostructures, transition metal dichalcogenides, topological insulators, etc.), classical and quantum spin and valley Hall effects, spin relaxation, spin-charge conversion mechanisms, spin pumping, magnetic absorbates on surfaces, magnetic scanning tunneling probes, magnetism and topological phases of matter at interfaces, superconductivity in spin-split systems, topological superconductivity, superconductor-magnet hybrid junctions, etc.
