This project has the potential to revolutionize the next generation of information and communication technologies, with direct applications in Li-Fi (Light Fidelity) and LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging). Moreover, by further developing spin lasers as sources of coherent light, the project’s results could be applied to optical links in data centers, intra-chip communications integrated with silicon photonics, space optical communications, and much more.

Challenges

> Implementation of high-speed optical communication in the gigahertz range through the electrical control of magnetization dynamics in spin-LED emitters, coupled with information decoding using spin photodiodes as detectors.

> Exploration of the ultimate limits of polarization switching dynamics through the fully optical switching (AOS) of spin injectors.
