SPINTRONICS DEVICE, MAGNETIC MEMORY, AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS

摘要

Provided are a spintronics device, a magnetic memory, and an electronics device capable of generating a large spin current without depending on a specific material. A spintronics device includes a first conductive layer, a second conductive layer having carrier mobility or electrical conductivity lower than that of the first conductive layer, and a boundary region between the conductive layers. The boundary region has a gradient of carrier mobility or electrical conductivity, and a spin current is generated by rotation of a velocity field of an electron caused by the gradient.
