/Class Outline
This is an intensive lecture by Professor Emeritus Junsaku Nitta, Tohoku University (Research Professor, NTT Basic Research Laboratories, Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation) (Faculty: Hideki Goto and Suguru Kameda). Spintronics is an important field that includes storage, which is indispensable for current information processing, and the next generation memory device called Magnetoresistive Random Access Memory (MRAM). In this lecture, the fundamentals and applications of spintronics related to semiconductors and metals will be lectured to students who have already mastered the basics of quantum mechanics and semiconductor devices. 
Class Schedule 1st Introduction of spintronics
2nd Quantum mechanics in spintronics
3rd Origin of spin-orbit interaction and its applications
4th Semiconductor-based spintronics; Spin-transistors
