Experimental evidence of altermagnetism in a layered material opens a promising path toward future spintronics
To build the ultrafast computers of the future, scientists are looking beyond the electrical charge of electrons to another property: their spin.
Summary
To build the ultrafast computers of the future, scientists are looking beyond the electrical charge of electrons to another property: their spin. While conventional hardware relies on the movement of charge to process data, tapping into this intrinsic quantum property could enable researchers to reinvent how information travels through a circuit.
