At the origin of more than twenty patented innovations, Jean-Pierre Nozières conducts research on magnetic components, from material to concepts, and over the last ten years, more particularly on MRAM (magnetic random access memories).
A physicist by training, co-founder in 2002 with Bernard Dieny (CEA) of the Spintec - laboratory (joint unit in between CEA, CNRS and Grenoble-Alpes University), a laboratory he led for ten years, Jean-Pierre Nozières was, together with other colleagues from Spintec, at the origin of the creation of four start-ups in spintronics. The first, Crocus Technology, born in 2006, specializes in the industrialization of the MRAM technology developed at the Spintec laboratory. In 2014, Jean-Pierre Nozières launched eVaderis around the design of memory blocks and ultra-low-power circuits for the Internet of Things. Antaïos in 2016 develops the ultra-fast MRAM technology for computing processors, when Hprobe in 2017 offers on-line control equipment for the manufacture of MRAMs.
