چکیده

A spin wave majority fork-like structure with feature size of 40 nm, is presented and investigated, through micromagnetic simulations. The structure consists of three merging out-of-plane magnetization spin wave buses and four magneto-electric cells serving as three inputs and an output. The information of the logic signals is encoded in the phase of the transmitted spin waves and subsequently stored as direction of magnetization of the magneto-electric cells upon detection. The minimum dimensions of the structure that produce an operational majority gate are identified. For all input combinations, the detection scheme employed manages to capture the majority phase result of the spin wave interference and ignore all reflection effects induced by the geometry of the structure.

Phase-to-intensity conversion of magnonic spin currents and application to the design of a majority gate

Magnonic spin currents in the form of spin waves and their quanta, magnons, are a promising candidate for a new generation of wave-based logic devices beyond CMOS, where information is encoded in the phase of travelling spin-wave packets. The direct readout of this phase on a chip is of vital importance to couple magnonic circuits to conventional CMOS electronics. Here, we present the conversio...

Low-power Spin Valve Logic using Spin-transfer Torque with Automotion of Domain Walls

A novel scheme for non-volatile digital computation is proposed using spin-transfer torque (STT) and automotion of magnetic domain walls (DWs). The basic computing element is composed of a lateral spin valve (SV) with two ferromagnetic (FM) wires served as interconnects, where DW automotion is used to propagate the information from one device to another. The non-reciprocity of both device and i...
