  • APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SUPERCONDUCTING DIODE
    Publication number: 20240365674
    Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus and a method. Spin-splitting is induced at a superconductor and spin-polarization facilitated for tunneling across a tunnel barrier so that electric current across the tunnel barrier between a conductor and the superconductor flows primarily in one direction.
    Type: Application
    Filed: July 23, 2021
    Publication date: October 31, 2024
    Applicants: CONSIGLIO NAZIONALE DELLE RICERCHE, UNIVERSITY OF JYVASKYLA, CONSEJO SUPERIOR DE INVENTIGACIONES CIENTÍFICA, SUNIVERSIDAD DEL PAÍS VASCO/EUSKAL HERRIKO UNIBERTSITATEA

  • Superconducting logic element
    Patent number: 11005023
    Abstract: A superconducting logic element includes a superconducting tunnel junction including first and second superconductors. First and second insulating ferromagnets in contact with the first and second superconductors, respectively, generate by magnetic proximity effect a predetermined density of spin-split states in the first and second superconductors, respectively. A writing element applies a writing current to at least a superconductor and is in contact with one of the first or second insulating ferromagnets, so that the first and second insulating ferromagnets commute, by the magnetic field generated by the applied writing current, between a state with parallel magnetization to a state with antiparallel magnetization with respect to each other.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 23, 2018
