Antiferromagnetic Spintronics

Antiferromagnetic materials display significant potential for the development of low-power and ultrafast spintronic devices for logic, memory, and storage applications, potentially enabling low-power devices operating at THz frequencies. This book provides a succinct and comprehensive overview of recent developments in these materials. Antiferromagnetic Spintronics is broken into three sections, the first looking at theory and modelling, the second addressing synthesis and fabrication, and the third covering characterisation and validation. The chapters are written by international experts and discuss key developments and achievements, as well as future directions for further research. The book will be of interest to researchers in the field at both the junior and senior level.
