The device used in order to generate the pure spin current, produced at the Naval Research Laboratory, modulates and electrically detects pure spin in silicon semiconductors, mostly used in electronic devices. A silicon n-type layer enables the generation of a spin current, with the help of magnetic contacts placed o... |

The MRAM or Magnetoresistive Random Access Memory is part of a class of non-volatile computer memory (NVRAM) that has been developing ever since the early 1990's. The unique properties of these kinds of memories are thought to make them the dominant used memories in the future.Instead of using electric charges t... |

All currently used electronic devices rely on electron charge to function and to transmit information. A new science, called spintronics, tries to switch to using their spin instead of charge, thus potentially continuing the miniaturization process that is rapidly approaching its physical limits with current technol... |

Spintronics may well be the next big step in creating a new generation of smaller, smarter and faster computers, sensors and other devices. Due to the fact that the spin of an electron is a property that makes the electron act like a tiny magnet, it can be used to encode information in electronic circuits, computers... |
