Research @ Q-SPIN

Welcome to the Quantum Spintronics (Q-SPIN) Group at the Department of Physics, IIT Ropar. At Q-SPIN, we aim to push the boundaries of applied spintronic devices using emerging quantum materials. Our research explores the unique properties and potential applications of novel quantum materials in developing next-generation spintronic devices, advancing technologies that harness the power of quantum mechanics for practical, high-performance applications. We primarily focus on:

•Advanced Materials Research: Exploring van der Waals, Weyl, Dirac, and other spintronic materials thin film (magnetic/non-magnetic), and heterostructures.

•Applied Spintronic Devices: Developing sub-THz oscillators, Magnetic Tunnel Junctions, SOT, and STT technologies for unconventional computing and magnetic memory applications.
