Job in Spintronic!

Hi All,

Could anyone tell me where can I get a job in the field of Spintronic?
Is there any web posting any job about that?

Thanks!

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.

Perhaps I could join in the request by re-defining it:
could somebody give names and/or places actively researching spintronics?

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.

Almost all of the above people are physicists.
