Experimental Demonstration of XOR Operation in Graphene Magnetologic Gates at Room Temperature

We report the experimental demonstration of a magnetologic gate built on graphene at room temperature. This magnetologic gate consists of three ferromagnetic electrodes contacting a single layer graphene spin channel and relies on spin injection and spin transport in the graphene. We utilize electrical bias tuning of spin injection to balance the inputs and achieve "exclusive or" (XOR) logic operation. Furthermore, simulation of the device performance shows that substantial improvement towards spintronic applications can be achieved by optimizing device parameters such as device dimensions. This advance holds promise as a basic building block for spin-based information processing.
