Applications
Bio-sensing and Biomagnetic Applications
A group of researchers at IBM, Columbia , and Stanford recently used Micro Magnetics' micron-size magnetic tunnel junction sensors to successfully detect single magnetic nanoparticles . The group's results demonstrate that the small active area and sensitivity of our SpinTJ (TM) devices make them an ideal fit for use in the emerging applications area of "lab-on-a-chip" detectors. In addition, our SpinTJ sensors show great promise for a number of other cutting-edge biomagnetic applications.
Last year, researchers at Brown University used our SpinTJ magnetic sensors to detect single superparamagnetic magnetic beads in solution . This result, published in Applied Physics Letters, was the first successful usage of magnetic tunneling junction sensors in this biological application.
