Spin and Energy Lab

Spin and Energy Lab (SEL) was established in 2011 with an initial investment of around S$13M to set up a new 10K cleanroom research facility. It was funded by grants from the National Research Foundation (NRF) of Singapore and Singapore Economic Development Board. SEL’s main objective is to acquire new knowledge and advance research in the areas of spintronics and optoelectronics. The main R&D focus of SEL lies in the materials components, processes and systems for spin based memory and logic devices and the optoelectronic devices and their systems. SEL also aims to transfer technology and further disseminate knowledge to the society and industry through collaborative research and projects, short courses and seminars.
