Bar-Ilan University hones the power of multiple magnetic states
These types of advancements could be used towards storing data, magnetic sensing as well as neuromorphic computing.
Bar-Ilan University researchers have shown that relatively simple magnetic thin film structures of N crossing ellipses can support two to the power of 2N magnetic states -- much greater than previously thought -- and demonstrated switching between the states with spin currents.(photo credit: SHUBHANKAR DAS/ARIEL ZAIG/MOTY SCHULTZ/LIOR KLEIN)ByJERUSALEM POST STAFF
