Abstract
Magnets are used in electronics to store and read information. A magnetic moment is rotated to a desired direction, so that information can later be retrieved by reading this orientation. Controlling the moment via electric currents causes resistive losses and heating, a major bottleneck in advancing computing technologies. Superconducting spintronics can resolve this using the unique features of superconductors.

期刊介绍:
Europhysics News is the magazine of the European physics community. It is owned by the European Physical Society and produced in cooperation with EDP Sciences. It is distributed to all our Individual Members and many institutional subscribers. Most European national societies receive EPN for further distribution. The total circulation is currently about 25000 copies per issue. It aims to provide physicists at all levels, ranging from post graduate students to senior managers working in both industry and the public sector, with a balanced overview of the scientific and organizational aspects of physics and related disciplines at a European level. Sections covered: ◦Activities ◦Features ◦News and views
