3rd International Conference on Spintronics Materials and Technology • June 21 - 23, 2010

NSF MCC Summer School: "Green's Function and Other Electronic Structure Methods for Materials Property and Device Prediction" • June 24 - July 2, 2010

Beckman Institute at the University of Illinois • Urbana, IL

The 3rd WUN International Conference on “Spintronic Materials and Technology” (WUN-SPIN10) is a follow-up of the 1st (WUN-SPIN07, York, UK 2007) and the 2nd (WUN-SPIN08, Nanjing & Hangzhou 2008) conferences. This conference is intended to be a forum for experts to discuss the new scientific and technological developments in the field of spintronics.

As such, its emphasis will be placed on spintronic applications, and impact on technology. The list of topics included:

* Diluted magnetic semiconductors
* Novel magnetic and spintronic materials
* Organic Spintronics
* Spin injection and detection
* Spin generation and coherence
* Spin torque
* Spin dynamics and magnetic reversal
* Spintronic devices and TMR
* Nanomagnetic material characterization
* Single spin devices
* Spintronic device simulation

The conference will be followed by a Summer School on “Green's Function and Other Electronic-Structure Methods for Materials Property and Device Prediction” organized by the NSF-funded Materials Computation Center (MCC).
