035 The Skyrmion MTJ: A New Switch for the Future of Compute One North Stories

This is One North Stories, an A*START CENTRAL Podcast
Moores Law may be ending, but Richard Feynman told us: There’s Plenty of Room at the Bottom. Let me subtly add: there’s plenty of physics there too, both for silicon and beyond.
Where is the future of compute going? Silicon? Yes, that's the near future. Beyond Silicon? Beyond 2 states per bit? Workload specific compute? We're already there, somewhat.
This episode is trying something a little different. Deep Tech being cooked up in Singapore's labs. A new switching device, the Skyrmion Magnetic Tunnel Junction. It's electrically switched, fabricated on a silicon substrate and oh yeah, has an ultra low switching energy, is non-volatile and can have more than two states per cell.
Join us for a conversation with James Lourembam, Ho Pin, and Chen Shaohai of IMRE, an A*STAR Research Institution. This is instigated by the team's (led by Anjan Soumyanarayanan), work being published in the journal Nature.
Prepare to have your mind blown. Ok maybe not yet, but my colleagues have fantastic results to share with the World.
