Abstract :
This paper demonstrates how magnetically-coupled nanometer-size ferromagnetic dots can be used for information processing. A hierarchy of modeling tools is utilized for efficient simulation and design of these nanomagnet circuits. Based on these tools, we show how the shape and placement of dots can be designed to perform desired logic functions. Experimental investigations of such closely packed nanomagnet arrays are promising.
