Abstract

Graphene is the wonder material hoped to enable the energy-efficient spin-based information processing that could replace today's electronics. Actually making working devices from this stuff, however, is not trivial. This study presents a milestone in harnessing spins in graphene for computation: The authors have produced one of the building blocks needed to make spintronic integrated circuits.
