Semiconductor information-processing devices are among the
most sophisticated, complex high-performance structures. As the
construction cost of a new fabrication line approaches $3.5 billion,
and 25% of its tools are obsolete and need replacement every three
years, it is reasonable to question the appeal of alternate methods
of information processing. Is it even realistic to imagine that an
entirely distinct method of performing logical operations might
be competitive? Metallic spintronic devices, such as hard disk read
heads and magnetic random access memory (MRAM) are one of
the most successful technologies of the past decade, with scaling
trends outdoing even CMOS — can semiconductor analogues
provide enough new functionality to warrant interest? Electro-optic
modulators are also a successful room-temperature technology. What
is the advantage of replacing these devices with magnetic analogues?
Quantum computing seems to be progressing rapidly with atoms
and superconductors — why use spins in semiconductors?
Metallic spintronic devices1, originating from the discovery
of giant magnetoresistance (GMR)2,3 in 1988 and the subsequent
development of the spin valve4, can be understood by assuming that
any current of spins is carried by two ‘types’ of carriers, spin-up and
spin-down. Th e two-channel picture of spin transport proposed
by Mott5 explains the behaviour of magnetoresistive devices6–10,
including GMR and tunnelling magnetoresistance11 (TMR), as well as
spin injection into metals
