chroot said:That's a very small field right now, on the cutting edge of electronics. Few people in world are really qualified for such jobs; if were so qualified, you'd already know where to be looking. Sorry to burst your bubble.

A few that come to mind : the Santa Barbara group under Dave Awschalom, Bob Buhrman's group in Cornell, Stuart Parkin's division at IBM Almaden. Also, the US Govt is very interested in Spintronics - Sam Bader (MSD, Argonne) and Stewart Wolf (NRL/DARPA) are two of the big names in the field.jf117 said:Perhaps I could join in the request by re-defining it:
could somebody give names and/or places actively researching spintronics?

Spintronics is a field of research that focuses on the manipulation of an electron's spin for use in electronic devices. It is important because it has the potential to make electronic devices smaller, faster, and more energy-efficient.
There are various job opportunities available in spintronics, including research positions in academic institutions and national laboratories, as well as in the industry for companies developing spintronic devices and technologies.
A career in spintronics typically requires a strong background in physics, particularly in the areas of quantum mechanics and solid-state physics. Additionally, experience with experimental techniques and knowledge of computer programming can be beneficial.
Yes, there are various industries and companies that are actively involved in spintronics research and development. These include semiconductor companies, data storage companies, and companies working on emerging technologies such as quantum computing.
The potential future advancements in spintronics include the development of new materials and devices, as well as their integration into existing technologies. This could lead to an increase in job opportunities in both research and industry settings, as well as the emergence of new spintronics-related industries.
