Spin-polarized transport in magnetic nanostructures

Spin-polarized transport in magnetic nanostructures

Two of the principal phenomena observed and exploited in the field of spintronics are giant magnetoresistance (GMR) and spin transfer torque (STT). With GMR, the resistance of a magnetic multilayer is affected by the relative orientation of its magnetic layers due to (electron) spin dependent scatte...
