Spintronics Handbook, Second Edition offers an update on the single
most comprehensive survey of the two intertwined fields of
spintronics and magnetism, covering the diverse array of materials
and structures, including silicon, organic semiconductors, carbon
nanotubes, graphene, and engineered nanostructures. It focuses on
seminal pioneering work, together with the latest in cutting-edge
advances, notably extended discussion of two-dimensional materials
beyond graphene, topological insulators, skyrmions, and molecular
spintronics. The main sections cover physical phenomena,
spin-dependent tunneling, control of spin and magnetism in
semiconductors, and spin-based applications. Features: Presents the
most comprehensive reference text for the overlapping fields of
spintronics (spin transport) and magnetism. Covers the full
spectrum of materials and structures, from silicon and organic
semiconductors to carbon nanotubes, graphene, and engineered
nanostructures. Extends coverage of two-dimensional materials
beyond graphene, including molybdenum disulfide and study of their
spin relaxation mechanisms Includes new dedicated chapters on
cutting-edge topics such as spin-orbit torques, topological
insulators, half metals, complex oxide materials and skyrmions.
Discusses important emerging areas of spintronics with
superconductors, spin-wave spintronics, benchmarking of spintronics
devices, and theory and experimental approaches to molecular
spintronics. Evgeny Tsymbal's research is focused on computational
materials science aiming at the understanding of fundamental
properties of advanced ferromagnetic and ferroelectric
nanostructures and materials relevant to nanoelectronics and
spintronics. He is a George Holmes University Distinguished
Professor at the Department of Physics and Astronomy of the
University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL), Director of the UNL's
Materials Research Science and Engineering Center (MRSEC), and
Director of the multi-institutional Center for NanoFerroic Devices
(CNFD). Igor Zutic received his Ph.D. in theoretical physics at the
University of Minnesota. His work spans a range of topics from
high-temperature superconductors and ferromagnetism that can get
stronger as the temperature is increased, to prediction of various
spin-based devices. He is a recipient of 2006 National Science
Foundation CAREER Award, 2005 National Research Council/American
Society for Engineering Education Postdoctoral Research Award, and
the National Research Council Fellowship (2003-2005). His research
is supported by the National Science Foundation, the Office of
Naval Research, the Department of Energy, and the Airforce Office
of Scientific Research.
