SPINTRONICS
One of the tiniest particles in the universe, long appreciated as an amazing carrier of electrical charge, now discovered to be even more capable .It spins.
MIGHTY OF ELECTRON
What Is Spintronics ? ? ?
Spintronics ("spin transport electronics"), also known as magnetoelectronics, is an emerging technology that exploits the intrinsic spin of the electron and its associated magnetic moment, in addition to its fundamental electronic charge, in solid-state devices.
The storage and transfer of information using the spin state of electrons as well as their charge.
WHEN IS SPINTRONIC???
1988 - Giant Magnetoresistive Effect (GME) discovered by Albert Fert.
2004 - IBM scientists view a single electron spin with a special atomic force microscope.
2005-July - New Spintronic Speed Record - 2GHz MRAM devised.
2009March –Scientists prove that the existence of a spin battery.
2011-January – researches manage to generate spin current in graphene
From 1980 to 2011
