  • Spin orbit torque generating materials
    Patent number: 10878985
    Abstract: A material may include at least one of BixSe(1-x), BixTe(1-x), or SbxTe(1-x), where x is greater than 0 and less than 1. In some examples, the material exhibits a Spin Hall Angle of greater than 3.5 at room temperature. The disclosure also describes examples of devices that include a spin-orbit torque generating layer, in which the spin-orbit torque generating layer includes at least one of BixSe(1-x), BixTe(1-x), or SbxTe(1-x), where x is greater than 0 and less than 1. In some examples, the spin-orbit torque generating layer exhibits a Spin Hall Angle of greater than 3.5 at room temperature.
    Type: Grant

    Assignee: Regents of the University of Minnesota
    Inventors: Jian-Ping Wang, Mahendra DC, Mahdi Jamali, Andre Mkhoyan, Danielle Hickey
  • Fast magnetoelectric device based on current-driven domain wall propagation
    Patent number: 10217522
    Abstract: In some examples, an electronic device comprising an input ferroelectric (FE) capacitor, an output FE capacitor, and a channel positioned beneath the input FE capacitor and positioned beneath the output FE capacitor. In some examples, the channel is configured to carry a magnetic signal from the input FE capacitor to the output FE capacitor to cause a voltage change at the output FE capacitor. In some examples, the electronic device further comprises a transistor-based drive circuit electrically connected to an output node of the output FE capacitor. In some examples, the transistor-based drive circuit is configured to deliver, based on the voltage change at the output FE capacitor, an output signal to an input node of a second device.
