Background
Overview
As a cutting-edge field, spintronics represents a significant leap in computing and data storage, aligning with UPSC's focus on emerging technologies that can transform digital infrastructure, national security, and economic competitiveness.
Spintronics, or spin electronics, is an emerging technology that exploits the intrinsic angular momentum (spin) of electrons, in addition to their fundamental electronic charge, to store, process, and transmit information, offering potential advantages over conventional electronics.
