ABSTRACT:
A transistor device may comprise a source having a first ferromagnetic contact thereto, a drain having a second ferromagnetic contact thereto, an electrically conductive gate positioned over a channel region separating the source and the drain, and an electrically insulating layer disposed between the gate and the channel region. The first and second ferromagnetic contacts have anti-parallel magnetic orientations relative to each other. The electrically insulating layer includes a number of paramagnetic impurities each having two spin states such that electrons interacting with the paramagnetic impurities cause the paramagnetic impurities to flip between the two spin states.
