PASPS-VFifth International Conference on Physics and Applications of Spin-related Phenomena in Semiconductors

Overview and scope

The 5th International Conference on Physics and Applications of Spin-related Phenomena in Semiconductors (PASPS V) follows the successful series of conferences held in Sendai (2000, 2006), Würzburg (2002), and Santa Barbara (2004). Following the trend in its previous edition, PASPS V shall further stimulate the cross fertilization between the fields of semiconductor and magnetic nanosystems and should provide an ideal forum for identifying (new) challenges, open questions and opportunities in spintronics.

Some areas of interest

  1. Magnetic semiconductors
  2. Coherent spin dynamics, spin relaxation and spin dephasing in nanostructures
  3. Spin injection, spin accumulation and the spin Hall effects
  4. Spin-orbit coupled confined electron systems
  5. Spin entanglement: production, detection & manipulation
  6. Spin effects in quantum dots
  7. Spintronic and magnetoelectronic devices and applications
  8. Spin-based quantum information processing, novel spin logic architectures
  9. Nuclear spins in semiconductors: manipulation and hyperfine coupling
  10. Nanomagnetics: spin transfer and spin torque, magnetic switching
  11. Optical & electrical spin injection & transport in magnetic/semiconductor systems
  12. Domain wall motion in magnetic systems
  13. TMR & GMR effects
  14. Theoretical modeling and simulations of spintronic devices and materials
  15. Spin imaging: Mn ions, spin flow and accumulation
  16. Novel spintronic systems (e.g., graphene, carbon nanotubes)
