“Spintronics,” in which both the spin and charge of electrons are used for logic and memory operations, promises an alternate route to traditional semiconductor electronics. A complete logic architecture can be constructed, which uses planar magnetic wires that are less than a micrometer in width. Logical NOT, logical AND, signal fan-out, and signal cross-over elements each have a simple geometric design, and they can be integrated together into one circuit. An additional element for data input allows information to be written to domain-wall logic circuits.read more

Zener Model Description of Ferromagnetism in Zinc-Blende Magnetic Semiconductors
TL;DR: Zener's model of ferromagnetism, originally proposed for transition metals in 1950, can explain T(C) of Ga(1-)(x)Mn(x)As and that of its II-VI counterpart Zn(1)-Mn (x)Te and is used to predict materials with T (C) exceeding room temperature, an important step toward semiconductor electronics that use both charge and spin.

Current-driven excitation of magnetic multilayers
TL;DR: In this paper, a new mechanism was proposed for exciting the magnetic state of a ferromagnet, where a transfer of vectorial spin accompanied an electric current flowing perpendicular to two parallel magnetic films connected by a normal metallic spacer.

Emission of spin waves by a magnetic multilayer traversed by a current.
TL;DR: In this paper, the interaction between spin waves and itinerant electrons is considerably enhanced in the vicinity of an interface between normal and ferromagnetic layers in metallic thin films, leading to a local increase of the Gilbert damping parameter which characterizes spin dynamics.
