He set up his experiment to measure
spin angular momentum of photons in high vacuum, with measurements based on the rotation of a two - inch diameter
wave plate — a
device that can alter the polarization state of light passing through it.
NiO is a promising material for spintronic
devices, where signals are transmitted not by electrical currents but rather by
spin waves, consisting of propagating disturbances in the ordering of magnetic materials, in a domino - like fashion.
Unlike conventional electronic transistors, spintronic
devices encode and communicate information, not with the electric currents, but rather with the
spin currents or
spin waves.

spin wave interactions with the crystal lattice vibrations, and energy loss channels in nickel oxide
devices,» Balandin said.
