The program will consist of invited and contributed oral and poster presentations falling broadly within the scope of the technical categories. Special sessions held onsite, including the Symposia, Tutorial, and Evening Sessions, will be recorded and available for viewing on-demand.
Additional details about special sessions will be posted as they become available.
2:30 - 5:00 pm
Chaired by Aurélien Manchon, AIX-Marseille University
In this tutorial, we will explore the fascinating world of two-dimensional (2D) ferromagnets, a rapidly evolving field at the intersection of condensed matter physics and materials science. The session will cover the fundamental principles governing magnetism in low-dimensional systems, including the role of spin interactions, magnetic anisotropy, and the impact of reduced dimensionality on magnetic ordering. We will discuss key experimental techniques used to probe 2D magnetic materials and highlight recent breakthroughs in van der Waals magnets, such as CrI₃ and Fe₃GeTe₂. The tutorial will also address potential applications of 2D ferromagnets in spintronics and quantum technologies, along with current challenges and future research directions.

After graduate student Michel Jullière attempted measuring tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) at low temperature in the first magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) with amorphous Ge tunnel barriers in 1975, it took another 20 years for the observation of real TMR at room temperature. In this Special Evening Session, Jagadeesh Moodera will give his perspective of this revolutionizing discovery that has since made possible use of the MTJ as a key component in every hard disk drive manufactured since 2004, as well as in magnetic sensors and in nonvolatile magnetic random access memory (MRAM) technology, with potential for developing neuromorphic computing architecture. Hiroaki Sukegawa will describe how the introduction of novel materials, in addition to advancements in film synthesis and MTJ interface quality and crystallinity, is leading to ever increasing TMR values. Then, with an industry standpoint, Guohan Hu will describe the key aspects of MTJ performance that are critical for a magnetic memory product and share what is needed from MTJs to advance MRAM technology further.
12:15 pm - 1:45 pm

Artificial intelligence has become an integral part of modern society, transforming every aspect of human life—including scientific research. As AI continues to evolve, its impact on the field of magnetism presents both exciting opportunities and significant challenges. This special session brings together three distinguished researchers from around the world to share their insights on how the magnetism community should navigate the rise of AI. Each speaker will discuss AI’s role within their specific area of expertise, offering perspectives on its current applications, limitations, and future potential. The session will conclude with a moderated panel discussion and audience Q&A, providing an interactive forum to explore the promises and pitfalls of AI in magnetism.
