Spin-wave logical gates

A universal approach to spin-wave logic gates is presented. The feasibility of a spin-wave based NOT gate has been demonstrated experimentally. We propose to use a Mach-Zender-type current-controlled interferometer based on spin-wave propagation in a ferromagnetic film to construct logical gates. We...

Description
Summary:A universal approach to spin-wave logic gates is presented. The feasibility of a spin-wave based NOT gate has been demonstrated experimentally. We propose to use a Mach-Zender-type current-controlled interferometer based on spin-wave propagation in a ferromagnetic film to construct logical gates. We investigate the performance of the main element of such interferometric logical gates-the controlled phase shifter implemented as a spin-wave device.
