Today, nearly all microelectronic devices are based on storing or flowing the electronâ??s charge. ? The electron also possesses a quantum mechanical property termed “spin”, that gives rise to magnetism. Electrical current is comprised of “spin-up” and “spin-down” electrons, which behave as largely independent spin currents.? (more…)
