What is Spintronics?
It deals with spin dependent properties of an electron
instead of or in addition to its charge dependent
properties.
Access Memory)
Spin Transistor
Quantum Computer
Spintronic Scanner
MRAM
It is based on integration of MTJ (Magnetic Tunnel
Junction).
Non-volatility.
Conclusion
• With lack of dissipation, Spintronics may be the best
mechanism for creating ever-smaller devices.
• The potential market is enormous, In maybe a 10-
year timeframe, Spintronics will be on par with
electronics.
• That's why there's a huge race going on around the
world In exploring Spintronics.
