IIT Bombay Proposes Spintronics Device
A high-performance magnetic tunnel junction that makes use of wavelike properties that are known and exploited in optics has been proposed by researchers from Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay. They developed a quantum transport computational platform to predict the performance of such a device. If realised, the device can drastically improve existing standards of computing hardware and electronics. The results are published in the journal Applied Physics Letters.
How the Tunnel will Work?
- A magnetic tunnel junction has two layers of ferromagnetic material separated by an insulating barrier. The ferromagnetic layers have the capacity to be magnetised along a particular direction. ....
