  1. Nanomagnetics: A New Hardware Device Group 2 Jason Hill Ryan Long Joye Turnage Jonathan Ashworth

  2. What is Nanotechnology? Nano= 1 Billionth, therefore a nanometer is one billionth of a meter Nanotechnology- any technology that exploits phenomena and structures that can only occur at the nanometer scale

  3. Scaling Laws

  4. Nanometer Scale

  5. What is a Nanomagnet? Nanomagnet: an extremely small magnet that can transfer information Nanomagnets are predicted to one day replace transistors in computers

  6. Nanomagnet Technology Discovered by Russell Cowburn Furthered by Alexandre Imre Concept: uses an alternating north-south polarity to rapidly transfer information down a chain of nanomagnets

  7. Applications of Nanomagnets Magnetic Random Access Memory (MRAM) • Keeps frequently used software or data permanently in magnetic cells Benefits • Load up time is significantly faster

  8. Processing speed • Most computers processors function at 2 or 3 Gigahertz • Magnets 110 Nanometers wide have shown the ability to process at speeds of at least 100 Megahertz

  9. Research and Development 2004 • Roughly 4.3 Billion 2009 • Estimated to be approx. 12 Billion

  10. In Conclusion Nanomagnets are tomorrow’s future in magnetic devices!
