Spintronic Materials

Spintronic figure Spintronic materials are often made of dilute magnetic semiconductors such as III-V or II-VI semiconductors alloyed with a magnetic element. These alloys are both ferromagnetic and semiconducting, opening the door to exciting "spintronics" applications - devices based on both electron charge and spin.
