Science Daily May 3, 2024 The chiral induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect is emerging as a design principle for creating next-generation spintronic devices. CISS implies that the spin preference of chiral structures persists upon injection of pure spin currents and can act as a spin analyzer without the need for a ferromagnet. A team of researchers (North Carolina State University, University of Pittsburgh, University of Illinois – Urbana) showed that an anomalous spin current absorption in chiral metal oxides that manifested a colossal anisotropic nonlocal Gilbert damping with a maximum-to-minimum ratio of up to 1000%. A twofold symmetry of the […]
