The processor, integrated graphics, and other embedded components that make up some of the most popular low-power, ultra-light PCs require so little power that their power supplies and batteries ...
Spintronics and nanophotonics combined in 2-D material. ScienceDaily . Retrieved June 2, 2025 from www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2018 / 01 / 180125140832.htm ...
Electric fields control spintronics devices. The work opens up a new device concept that the team calls layer-spintronics in which spin control is achieved via layer selection using an electric field.
Spintronics is the use of a fundamental property of particles known as spin for information processing. In many ways, spintronics is analogous to electronics, which instead uses the electrical ...
Although spintronics has for some years promised to revolutionise IT, it's still in its infancy. Typically, ferromagnets have been used for such devices, as they offer certain highly desirable ...
Using powerful magnets, researchers have found a way to store digital data -- zeroes and ones -- in the spin of an atom's nucleus. In theory, this spin memory should be faster and require less ...
For example, spintronics guru and meeting organizer Stuart Parkin of IBM Almaden describes how a spintronics racetrack memory works; Ian Appelbaum of the University of Maryland explains why humble ...
Physicists have discovered the equivalent of a new 'Ohm's Law' for spintronics - the emerging science of manipulating the spin of electrons for useful purposes. Unlike the Ohm's Law for ...
The field of spintronics has, so far, focused on magnetic systems with uncompensated order, i.e. ferromagnets and ferrimagnets. Both these systems can be easily studied using conventional ...
Spintronics promises devices that are faster and more energy efficient than conventional electronics, but a major hurdle has been how to effectively generate the spin current in the first place.
Spintronics might sound like the name of a long-lost ’80s pop band, but it’s actually a scientific field that may someday lead to more compact and useful mobile devices.
Physicists at the University of Cambridge have developed a spintronic shift register that allows information to be passed between different layers of a 3D microchip.
