英文簡介

Spin electronics is a rapidly emerging field which is based on taking advantage of the unique properties of the spin of the electron, the nucleus and other fundamental particles, as well as that of the photon. Spin electronics has special importance as conventional electronics reaches its physical limitations.Novel sensing, memory and logic devices, which rely on generating, manipulating and detecting the electron's spin, as well as using currents of spin-polarized electrons to manipulate magnetization in the form of magnetic nanoelements and magnetic domain walls, have emerged in recent years.Spin electronic devices in the form of highly sensitive read sensors for magnetic recording have been a key component of high capacity magnetic disk drives for more than a decade: they enabled a vast increase in the storage capacity of disk drives by several orders of magnitude and are key to today's information age.Solid state memory devices such as Magnetic Random Access Memory (MRAM) have recently entered the market. Other exciting possibilities relate to very dense and high performance memory-storage devices such as Racetrack Memory, as well as low power magnetic logic, and applications of spintronic sensing devices such as diagnostic biomagnetic lab-on-a-chip devices. Many of these applications require the integration of magnetic and semiconducting materials and a fundamental understanding of both magnetic and semiconductor physics and technology: this is especially important if spin electronics is to become the electronics of the future.Spin electronics encompasses a multidisciplinary research effort involving magnetism, semiconductor electronics, materials science, chemistry and biology. SPIN aims to provide a forum for the presentation of research and review articles of interest to all researchers in the field.The scope of the journal includes (but is not necessarily limited to) the following topics:MaterialsMetalsHeusler compoundsComplex oxides: antiferromagnetic, ferromagneticDilute magnetic semiconductorsDilute magnetic oxidesHigh performance and emerging magnetic materialsSemiconductor electronicsNanodevicesFabricationCharacterizationSpin injectionSpin transportSpin transfer torqueSpin torque oscillatorsElectrical control of magnetic propertiesOrganic spintronicsOptical phenomena and optoelectronic spin manipulationApplications and devicesNovel memories and logic devicesLab-on-a-chipOthersFundamental and interdisciplinary studiesSpin in low dimensional systemSpin in medical sciencesSpin in other fieldsComputational materials discovery
