Two leading U.S.-based technology developers — IBM and Stanford University — are partnering to launch an advanced research project to create new high-performance, low-power electronics in the emerging field of nanotechnology called “spintronics.” A recent report by a leading technology analysis firm indicates that ongoing research into spintronics, a method aimed at enabling spin-polarized current flow through semiconductors, is likely to result in a completely new class of consumer electronics in coming years.
