Silicon is ubiquitous in modern electronics, and now it is becoming increasingly useful in quantum computing. In particular, ...

It remains a magnetic signal, but it has measurable optical properties." Converting the spin wave into an optical signal is the first half of the spin-to-charge conversion process. In the next step, ...

What will the computers of tomorrow look like? Chances are good that spintronics will play a decisive role in the next generation of computers. In spintronics, the intrinsic angular momentum of an ...

At the interface between light and magnetism: Physicists from Konstanz show how spin waves (magnons) can be converted into signals that can be used by computers. What will the computers of tomorrow ...
