Dr Don Eigler, an IBM Fellow from the IBM Almaden Research Centre will be giving a special seminar on THURSDAY 21ST OF FEBRUARY 2008 at 11.00 AM in the Leonard Huxley Lecture Theatre
Address: BUILDING 56, END OF MILLS ROAD, AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL UNIVERSITY

The title of his talk is:

The Quest for Spin Cascade Logic Circuits

Can we design, build and operate nanometer-scale logic circuits that perform conventional binary computation using only the spin degree of freedom? I will review progress towards this goal, highlighting the development of spin excitation spectroscopy to measure g-values, exchange energies, anisotropy energies and spin configurations of assemblies of magnetic atoms on surfaces.
