India, Nov. 11 -- New study could help researchers design materials for next-generation electronics that use electron spin to process and store information
Bhubaneswar: A new study identifies a specific surface of the cubic zinc- blende silver iodide (AgI) semiconductor as a promising host for persistent spin texture (PST) - an intriguing quantum phenomenon that holds immense potential for advancing next-generation electronic devices that utilizes the electron spin to process and store information. The research, led by Dr. Manish Kumar Mohanta, Ramanujan Faculty in the Department of Physics at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bhubaneswar, has been published in Physical Review B, a leading international journal in condensed-matter p...
