DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Williams Savero Torres (1Catalan Institute of Nanosc
 ience and Nanotechnology (ICN2)\, CSIC and the Barcelona Institute of Scie
 nce and Technology (BIST)\, Barcelona\, Spain)\nTwo dimensional materials 
 have provided unique insights in condensed matter physics\, yielding a mul
 titude of novel effects. Among them\, graphene has shown to be an outstand
 ing material owing to its exceptional and tunable electrical properties. I
 n graphene\, spin information can propagate over long distances and also b
 e manipulated by proximity induced phenomena [1\,2\,3]\, providing thus th
 e building blocks for developing graphene-based spintronic devices.\n\nIn 
 this talk\, I will discuss recent spin transport experiments in van der Wa
 als heterostructures consisting of graphene and transition metal dichalcog
 enides. First\, I will describe how proximity induced spin-orbit effects l
 ead to an anisotropic spin dynamics in graphene and enable to manipulate s
 pin transport. In the second part\, I will show how spin-orbit proximity e
 ffects can induce an efficient generation and detection of spin currents\,
  that is comparable to the largest reported to date. These findings provid
 e a novel route for spin generation free from magnetic materials and pave 
 the way for the development of ultra-compact and low power consumption mag
 netic memory devices. \n\n\n[1]	W. Han et al. Nat. Nano. 9  974\, (2014)\n
