Scientists Put 'Spin' In Silicon, Advance New Age Of Electronics
May 18, 2007 — Electrical engineers have demonstrated for the first time how the spin properties of electrons in silicon -- the world's most dominant semiconductor, used in electronics ranging from computers to ... > full story -
Magnetic Computer Sensors May Help Study Biomolecules
May 10, 2007 — Magnetic switches like those in computers also might be used to manipulate individual strands of DNA for high-speed applications such as gene sequencing, experiments at the National Institute of ... > full story -
Extremely Small Magnetic Fields Can Be Manipulated With Soundwaves, Research Shows
April 27, 2007 — Scientists have shown how extremely small and intensive magnetic fields can be manipulated. They found a way to move smallest possible magnetic entities - flux quanta - with the help of acoustic ... > full story -
New Materials For Making 'Spintronic' Devices
April 25, 2007 — Scientists have devised methods to make a new class of electronic devices based on a property of electrons known as "spin," rather than merely their electric charge. This approach, dubbed ... > full story -
Biologist And Physicist Team Up To Study Alligator's 'Death Roll'
March 26, 2007 — Other than on television, few of us have ever seen the spectacular spin (and ghastly consequences) of the crocodilian "death roll." But, in a basement laboratory in the University's Schmucker's ... > full story -
Spintronics: Making Computers Smaller and Faster
March 19, 2007 — Researchers have made an important advance in the emerging field of 'spintronics' that may one day usher in a new generation of smaller, smarter, faster computers, sensors and other devices, ... > full story -
Physicists Tailor Magnetic Pairings In Nanoscale Semiconductors
March 14, 2007 — Electrons love to zip around metals such as copper, especially if the metal is cooled to temperatures near absolute zero. But if they encounter a magnetic atom (say, iron) during their travels, the ... > full story -
Delicate Relation Between Single Spins: Scientists Measure The Magnetic Interaction Between Single Atoms
March 2, 2007 — Probing the magnetic interaction between single atoms is no longer a dream. Using a scanning tunnelling microscope, the interaction of the spins of two neighboring cobalt atoms adsorbed at a copper ... > full story -
New Graphene Transistor Promises Life After Death Of Silicon Chip
February 28, 2007 — Researchers have used the world's thinnest material to create the world's smallest transistor -- a breakthrough that could spark the development of a new type of super-fast computer ... > full story -
Scientist Discovers New Explanation For Pulsar's Spin
February 24, 2007 — A researcher at North Carolina State University has developed a three-dimensional computer model that shows how pulsars obtain their spin, which could lead to a greater understanding of the processes ... > full story
