Spintronics: A New Frontier for Computing and Communications

Lecture presented by: Professor Albert Fert
Date: March 27, 2013
Location: VŠB–Technical University of Ostrava, Czech Republic

Spin Electronics - or Spintronics – is a new field of research which exploits the influence of the orientation of the electron spin* on the electrical conduction in magnetic materials. It is mainly known for the “giant magnetoresistance” (GMR) of the magnetic multilayers, a phenomenon that is used to read the hard disc of our computer and has led to a large increase of the capacity of the discs.
