Welcome
The Session will focus on the challenges of growth of spintronic
materials including magnetically doped nitrides, arsenides, oxides,
II-VI compounds and diamond. We will discuss issues related to various
characterization methods involving transport, magnetometry, optics,
electron, and X-ray diffraction, microscopy, and tomography as well as
spectroscopic optical and synchrotron-radiation methods. All these
topics will be viewed in perspective for possible spintronic devices
and applications. We hope the meeting will also serve as forum to
establish a firm platform for further exchange of knowledge and
collaboration among leading centers aiming to bring the spintronic
concepts and promises closer to industry-wide applications.
