Abstract

The visit of Dr. Z.D. Kvon will be very useful to continue the long term a collaboration between Novosibirsk and the various groups dedicated to the study of systems nanostructured in Brazil. Among these groups are the Laboratory of New Semiconductor Materials of the Institute of Physics of the University of Sao Paulo (LNMS - IFUSP), also theoretical and experimental groups of the Federal University of Sao Carlos, of the Institute of Physics of Sao Carlos, USP and others. As leader of LNMS the IFUSP, I have developed several major projects, including the international CNPq - NSF. The general objective of the project is to study nanostructured semiconductors for applications in spintronic. We are proposing find such effects in quantum wells of HgTe grown at the Institute of Semiconductors of Fisica, Novosibirsk. Our research points in the direction of a new generation of electronic devices based on spin. The discussion of physical problems related technology and the manufacture of such systems in IFUSP and the other laboratories and the measures that will be held in the LNMS - IFUSP may accelerate the development of spintronic in Brazil.
