Know about the book -

Spintronics is written by Tomasz Blachowicz and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 3110490633 (ISBN 10) and 9783110490633 (ISBN 13).

Starting from quantum mechanical and condensed matter foundations, this book introduces into the necessary theory behind spin electronics (Spintronics). Equations of spin diffusion, -evolution and -tunelling are provided before an overview is given of simulation of spin transport at the atomic scale. Furthermore, applications are discussed with a focus on elementary spintronics devices such as spin valves, memory cells and hard disk heads.
