Using superconductivity to control magnetism: a facet of superconducting spintronics

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2023-09-25 v1 Materials Science Superconductivity

Abstract

Magnets are used in electronics to store and read information. A magnetic moment is rotated to a desired direction, so that information can later be retrieved by reading this orientation. Controlling the moment via electric currents causes resistive losses and heating, a major bottleneck in advancing computing technologies. Superconducting spintronics can resolve this using the unique features of superconductors.
