In 2023, EPFL researchers succeeded in sending and storing data using charge-free magnetic waves called spin waves, rather than traditional electron flows. The team from the Lab of Nanoscale Magnetic ...

Ottawa, Jan. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global spintronics market size is valued at USD 3.03 billion in 2026 and is expected to be worth USD 49.33 billion by 2035, with a robust CAGR of 36.48% ...

In some materials, spins form complex magnetic structures within the nanometre and micrometre scale in which the magnetization direction twists and curls along specific directions. Examples of such ...

The challenge of fabricating nanowires directly on silicon substrates for the creation of the next generation of electronics has finally been solved. Next generation spintronics will lead to better ...

Conventional electronic devices rely on the generation, transport, manipulation, and detection of electric charge carriers, such as electrons and holes. Spintronics employs the intrinsic angular ...

Spintronic devices promise faster operation than electronics thanks to the THz dynamics of many magnetic systems. This collection aims to publish cutting-edge experimental and theoretical research ...

The field of spintronics has evolved significantly since the pioneering discoveries of spin injection and giant magnetoresistance in the 1980s, which relied on spin-polarized electron injection from a ...

Magnetic materials are typically divided into ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic types, depending on their magnetic moments (electron spins), resulting in either macroscopic (net) magnetism or not.

The field of spintronics has, so far, focused on magnetic systems with uncompensated order, i.e. ferromagnets and ferrimagnets. Both these systems can be easily studied using conventional techniques, ...
