spin transfer torque (stt)

What is Spin Transfer Torque (STT)?

Spin Transfer Torque (STT) is a quantum mechanical phenomenon where the orientation of magnetic moments in a material can be manipulated by the application of a spin-polarized current. In simpler terms, STT enables the control of the magnetic state of a material using electrical currents, which has profound implications for data storage and memory devices. This effect is particularly significant at the nanoscale, where traditional magnetic fields are difficult to generate and control.
