One of the most fascinating puzzles for the graphene and spintronics communities is identifying the main microscopic process for spin relaxation in graphene. Conventional relaxation mechanisms have yielded contradictory results when applied to single-layer graphene. In an article published today in Nature Communications, researchers from the Institut Català de Nanociència i Nanotecnologia (ICN2) determine the spin lifetime anisotropy of spin-polarized carriers in graphene, which is expected to generate valuable information […]

The PEND group has been invited to participate in the European Commission Graphene Flagship project. This invitation recognizes the recent results by the group on spintronics and, more specifically, those involving graphene. The participation in this project will help strengthen the resources of the group to work on graphene spintronics as well as the collaboration with the main teams working in this field across Europe. About the EC Graphene Flagship […]
