De Gruyter Textbook
Content:
As the first comprehensive introduction into the rapidly evolving field of spintronics, this textbook covers ferromagnetism in nano-electrodes, spin injection, spin manipulation, and the practical use of these effects in next-generation electronics. Based on foundations in quantum mechanics and solid state physics this textbook guides the reader to the forefront of research and development in the field, based on repeated lectures given by the author. The first to summarize the basic spin-related physical phenomena and their possible applications in future electronics in a didactically accessible manner. Also covers topological insulators and spin-based quantum computation. Includes over 100 full-color illustrations and diagrams.
