Offer Description
The "Big Data" revolution presents major challenges in semiconductor technology, particularly in data transfer delays across processor and memory levels. To address these, non-volatile memories (NVMs) like MRAMs are developed, offering near-infinite endurance and superior density. The Institut Jean Lamour, known for its expertise in materials science and engineering, focuses on advancing these technologies, contributing to more efficient and reliable computing platforms.
The post-doc will develop technologies based on all-optical switching, utilizing ultra-fast lasers for manipulating information in MRAM devices with minimal energy dissipation. This includes providing a fundamental understanding of the interactions involved, demonstrating the manipulation of magnetization and spin-polarized current, and fabricating MRAM prototypes to showcase the potential of optical technologies in memory and logic components.
The Institute Jean Lamour (IJL) is a joint research unit of CNRS and Université de Lorraine.
Focused on materials and processes science and engineering, it covers: materials, metallurgy, plasmas, surfaces, nanomaterials and electronics.
The IJL has 263 permanent staff (30 researchers, 134 teacher-researchers, 99 IT-BIATSS) and 394 non-permanent staff (182 doctoral students, 62 post-doctoral students / contractual researchers and more than 150 trainees), of 45 different nationalities.
Partnerships exist with 150 companies and our research groups collaborate with more than 30 countries throughout the world.
Its exceptional instrumental platforms are spread over 4 sites; the main one is located on Artem campus in Nancy.
The study will be carried out within the SPIN team (https://spin.ijl.cnrs.fr ).
