Abstract

Spintronics, the use of spin of an electron instead of its charge, has received huge attention from research communities for different applications including memory, interconnects, logic implementation, neuromorphic computing, and many other applications. Here, in this paper, we review the works within spintronics, more specifically on spin-orbit torque (SOT) within different research groups. We also provide researchers an insight into the future potentials of the SOT-based designs. This comprehensive review paper covers different aspects of SOT-based design from device and circuit to architecture level as well as more ambitious and futuristic applications of such technology.
