, are highly attractive
in modern electronics and photonics.
However, their spintronic applications remain largely unexplored.
Here, we propose a tentative modality of phase change spintronic devices
based on the ferromagnet/PCM/ferromagnet structure. The electrically
tunable properties of a PCM interlayer give rise to new possibilities
of manipulating spin transport through phase change, … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
