The potential for using spin in practical applications has already been realized in a number of different fields (the award of the 2007 Nobel Prize in Physics to Albert Fert and Peter Grünberg ...
The future of tin-based qubits is brighter thanks to breakthrough work by Stanford University researchers. Qubits are the fundamental carriers of quantum information, and scientists worldwide are ...
Progress in solid-state physics tends to occur in increments rather ... but then Kravchenko and his collaborators switched off the spin. All electrons have a spin associated with them, but ...
A way to generate and control spin currents without magnetic fields or magnetic materials may be possible using dissipative quantum ratchets in the presence of spin–orbit coupling. But still ...
