Electronic control of magnonic and spintronic devices

Can spintronic field effect devices compete with their electronic counterparts ?

Current interest in spintronics is largely motivated by a belief that spin based devices (e.g. spin field effect transistors) will be faster and consume less power than their electronic counterparts. Here we show that this is generally untrue. Unless materials with extremely strong spin orbit interaction can be developed, the spintronic devices will not measure up to their electronic cousins.

Modelling of multipurpose spintronic devices

Modelling of spin transport and spin dynamics, as a prerequisite for designing spintronic devices, is considered. Spin injection into a semiconductor under chargedepletion, chargeneutrality, and charge accumulation is investigated. The existence of amaximum spin current density in the bulk at a large spin current density at the interface in charge accumulation is related to the spin current at ...

Guest Editorial — Recent Progress in Spintronic Devices

The past three decades have witnessed an explosive growth of research activities and discoveries in the area of spintronics. At their heart, spintronic device technologies are based on physical phenomena that allow electrical signals (currents and voltages) to interact directly with spins in nanomagnetic structures, i.e., where magnetic and transport properties are directly coupled. Spintronics...
