The foundational principle of spintronics relies on exploiting the spin of the electrons for reading and manipulating the magnetization of thin films. Tell-tale examples are found in the switching and reading of<br \/>\n&nbsp;magnetic tunnel junctions as well as in the controlled displacement of magnetic domain walls and skyrmions. The latter opened the possibility to realize memory devices in which the information is carried by mobile magnetic elements, thus having the potential to<br \/>\n&nbsp;overcome the memory capacity and the information processing speed of the current technologies. Despite the enormous progress that has been made, most technologies are still constrained to use metallic ferromagnets, which suffer from high losses and are limited in frequency. Besides, spin manipulation in metals is very challenging, which prevented the realization of spin logic devices.&nbsp;In this project, we propose to overcome the limitations of the current spintronic technologies by employing ferroelectric, ferrimagnetic, and antiferromagnetic materials in nanoscale engineered heterostructure devices. Thanks to the unique properties of these materials, we will explore new routes to electrically control chiral magnetic interactions and&nbsp; charge-to-spin conversion phenomena, as well as realize novel logic and memory applications that have the potential to be faster, denser, and consume less energy than the current ferromagnetic-based technologies. We will do so by combining 1) the growth of high-quality materials and functional heterostructures, 2) advanced device fabrication and characterization based on harmonic transport, magneto optical microscopy, scanning probe nanoscopy, and x-ray synchrotron-based imaging and spectroscopy measurements in the presence of&nbsp;magnetic fields and electric currents, and 3) ab initio simulations and spin transport theory for physics prediction and data interpretation<\/p>\n<p><strong>ARTICLES:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00abMagnetic field screening of 2D materials&nbsp; revealed by magnetic force microscopy\u201d D.
