Congratulations to Dr. Zhengyang Zhao! He has successfully defended his thesis titled "Spintronics Devices for Advanced Memory and Computing Applications", on June 10th. He is joining Amazon to continue his adventure! Congratulations to Dr. Zhao again and wish him all the best of luck in his future endeavors!

Our group member Onri Jay Benally's adventure was featured by the Book "Readers' Club Bulletin".

The Wang's group had a Zoom online farewell party for Delin as he is going back to China after spending his most productive and memorable 8 years in the group.

Our group member Anthony Hurben has graduated and will continue his journey in spintronics as he joins Yale University. Congratulations and BRAVO!

Onri Jay Benally is recently featured by a German company Raith.

Congratulations to Dr. Xudong Hang! 

Congratulations to Onri! He is recently featured on the UMN News: Hardwired for science.

Congratulations to Dr. Diqing Su! She has successfully defended her PhD thesis titled "Magnetic Biosensing Technologies and Applications" on Jan 7th, 2021.

 Our group member Onri Jay Benally is recently featured on the CSE website: Hardwired for science - CSE researcher finds fit in spintronics lab.

In a joint undertaking, Dr. Delin Zhang and co-authors from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, the Department of Mechanical Engineering, and the School of Physics and Astronomy have reported direct observation of magnon-phonon coupling in time and frequency domains under femtosecond laser excitation. Based on their observations, the team have also proposed a theoretical model explaining the physical mechanism underlying this strain-spin interaction, and the results of their work are reported in “High-frequency magnetoacoustic resonance through strain-spin coupling in perpendicular magnetic multilayers,” published in Science Advances. The work is significant for the impact it could have on applications in cloud storage, advanced spin memory, logic, and other spintronic devices.
