Abstract:
A spintronic device comprising:(1) a first electrical contact; (2) a first magnetic component in contact with said first electrical contact and having a first coercive field associated therewith; (3) a non-magnetic conductive, semi-conductive, or insulating component in contact with said hard magnetic component; and (4) a second magnetic component in contact with said non-magnetic conductive, semi-conductive, or insulating component, and having coercive field less than said first coercive field; and (5) a second electrical contact in contact with said polymeric, molecular or organic-based magnetic component; wherein at least one of said first and second magnetic components is a polymeric, molecular or organic-based magnetic component.
