Spintronics: Materials, Devices, and Applications

Discover the latest advances in spintronic materials, devices, and applications

In Spintronics: Materials, Devices and Applications, a team of distinguished researchers delivers a holistic introduction to spintronic effects within cutting-edge materials and applications. Containing the perfect balance of academic research and practical application, the book discusses the potential--and the key limitations and challenges--of spintronic devices.

The latest title in the Wiley Series in Materials for Electronic and Optoelectronic Applications, Spintronics: Materials, Devices and Applications explores giant magneto-resistance (GMR) and tunneling magnetic resistance (TMR) materials, spin-transfer torque and spin-orbit torque materials, spin oscillators, and spin materials for use in artificial neural networks. Applications in multi-ferroelectric and antiferromagnetic materials are presented as well.

This book also includes:

• A thorough introduction to recent research developments in the fields of spintronic materials, devices, and applications
• Comprehensive explorations of skymions, magnetic semiconductors, and antiferromagnetic materials
• Practical discussions of spin-transfer torque materials and devices for magnetic random-access memory
• In-depth examinations of giant magneto-resistance materials and devices for magnetic sensors

Perfect for advanced students and researchers in materials science, physics, electronics, and computer science, Spintronics: Materials, Devices and Applications will also earn a place in the libraries of professionals working in the manufacture of optics, photonics, and nanometrology equipment.
