WHAT IS SPIN e The electron rotates around the nucleus  orbit The electron rotates around itself  spin  magnetic dipole e

WHAT IS SPIN-ORBIT INTERACTION The motion seen from the lab frame: The electron rotates around the nucleus e e The motion seen by the electron: The nucleus rotates around the electron and creates a magnetic field In atoms In crystals e

WHAT IS SPINTRONICS The electron has electric charge  electric current  Electronics: information carried by electric signals The electron has spin  magnetic (spin) current  Spintronics: information carried by magnetic signals The spin-orbit interaction allows the influence of electric fields on spin currents
