Handbook of Spin Transport and Magnetism

Beschreibung

With an introductory chapter by Nobel Prize laureate Albert Fert, this seminal handbook provides a comprehensive, balanced account of the state of the art in spintronics. It discusses diverse physical phenomena discovered in hybrid structures of ferromagnetic and normal metals, describes impressive breakthroughs in spin-dependent tunneling, and reviews the challenges and opportunities for controlling spin and magnetism in semiconductors. Along with covering current and potential spin-based applications, the book explores the phenomena characteristic of nanostructures made from metals, superconductors, molecular magnets, carbon nanotubes, quantum dots, and graphene.
