New directions in spintronics.

چکیده
Conventional microelectronics exploits only the charge degree of freedom of the electron. Bringing the spin degree of freedom to bear on sensing, radio frequency, memory and logic applications opens up new possibilities for 'more than Moore' devices incorporating magnetic components that can couple to an external field, store a bit of data or represent a Boolean state. Moreover, the electron spin is an archetypal two-state quantum system that is an excellent candidate for a solid-state realization of a qubit.

Precessionless spin transport wire confined in quasi-two-dimensional electron systems
We demonstrate that in an inversion-asymmetric two-dimensional electron system (2DES) with both Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit couplings taken into account, certain transport directions on which no spin precession occurs can be found when the injected spin is properly polarized. By analyzing the expectation value of spin with respect to the injected electron state on each space point in the ...
متن کاملQuasi-two-dimensional spin transport wire
We demonstrate that in an inversion-asymmetric quasi-two-dimensional electron system (quasi2DES) with both Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit couplings at present, certain transport directions on which no spin precession occurs can be found when the injected spin is properly polarized. By analyzing the expectation value of spin with respect the injected electron state on each space point in the ...
متن کاملSpin in organics: a new route to spintronics.
New developments in the nascent field of organic spintronics are discussed. Two classes of phenomena can be discerned. In hybrid organic spin valves (OSVs), an organic semiconducting film is sandwiched between two ferromagnetic (FM) thin films, aiming at magnetoresistive effects as a function of the relative alignment of the respective magnetization directions. Alternatively, organic magnetores...
متن کاملComputational design of two- dimensional topological materials
The progress in science and technology is largely boosted by the continuous discovery of new materials. In recent years, the state-of-art first-principles computational approach has emerged as a vital tool to enable materials discovery by designing a priori unknown materials as well as unknown properties of existing materials that are subsequently confirmed by experiments. One notable example i...

متن کاملSemiconductor Spintronics
We review recent progress made in the field of semiconductor spintronics, a branch of semiconductor electronics where both charge and spin degrees of freedom play an important role in realizing unique functionalities. We first describe the new spin-dependent phenomena found in semiconductors including carrier-induced ferromagnetism in III–V compounds, followed by an account of our current under...
