Forscher haben gezeigt, dass Spinstroeme mit Schallwellen erzeugt werden koennen. Weiterhin fanden sie, dass Spinstroeme auf isolierenden nichtmagnetischen Substraten auch durch einen weiteren Effekt, den sogenannten langreichweitigen Spin-Seebeck-Effekt erzeugt werden koennen.

Imagine yourself nano-sized, standing on the edge of a soon-to-be computer chip. Down shoots a beam of electrons, carving precise topography that is then etched the depth of the Grand Canyon into the chip. From the perspective of scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory, this improved form of etching could open the door to new technologies.

It is helpful - even life-saving - to have a warning sign before a structural system fails, but, when the system is only a few nanometers in size, having a sign that's easy to read is a challenge. Now, thanks to a clever bit of molecular design by University of Pennsylvania and Duke University bioengineers and chemists, such warning can come in the form of a simple color change.
