Harnessing Wrinkles and Defects in 2D Materials to Boost Spintronic Device Efficiency
Originally Published 4 months ago — by Phys.org

Rice University scientists discovered that tiny wrinkles in atomically thin materials like molybdenum ditelluride can control electron spins with high precision, enabling the development of ultra-compact, energy-efficient spintronic devices by creating persistent spin helix states through mechanical bending and flexoelectric effects.
