Extrapolating these trends to the long term suggests that a switch, which is more energy-efficient than a silicon complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) switch, is necessary to support future computing needs. Spintronic logic, which encodes information using spin and magnetism, can theoretically provide an energy-efficient switch; however, it is less mature than CMOS logic and has yet to be realized at the level of a full processor system, thus warranting an informed review of spintronic logic technologies with guidelines for future research directions. In this Review, we contextualize spintronic logic within the broader goals of beyond-CMOS computing. We then provide an overview of five types of spintronic logic, discussing the operating principles, advantages, advancements and challenges of each type. We highlight that future research in spintronic logic should focus on the realization of low-voltage operation, transparent benchmarking for application-level tasks, development of computing architectures that exploit unique features of spintronics such as non-volatility and high endurance, and adaptation of spintronic logic to circuits usable for both computing and memory. This Review provides motivation and direction for high-risk, high-reward research in spintronic logic that should be pursued in parallel with the CMOS road map. This Review showcases the research progress and prospects of spintronic logic, which encodes information using spin and magnetism. Focusing on five exemplary types, we discuss the promise, challenges and future research directions in the context of high-performance computing needs.","PeriodicalId":501701,"journal":{"name":"Nature Reviews Electrical Engineering","volume":"1 11","pages":"700-713"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142600834","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Advances in electrokinetic theory, combined with optimized microfabrication processes, are at the core of the development of high-throughput devices capable of directly handling unprocessed samples and seamlessly integrating analytical functions. Electrokinetic technologies can manipulate bioparticles ranging from a few nanometres to tens of micrometres, achieving throughputs of up to 106 particles per second, comparable to other state-of-the-art techniques. This Review starts by presenting the fundamentals of physical phenomena underlying the generation of electrokinetic forces applied to biological particles.

Automated recognition replicates the human process and analyses a face image, which is typically acquired with a visible spectrum sensor. When dealing with automated operational systems, the quality of the captured face image is relevant as it affects the recognition accuracy. Thus, it is necessary to measure the utility of a face sample with both a quality score and complementary measures that can provide actionable feedback. This Perspective addresses challenges and discusses solutions for the optimization of biometric recognition systems specifically related to face image analysis. One of these challenges is the vulnerability to presentation attacks. Consequently, for reliable recognition in non-supervised environments, robust presentation attack detection is required. Moreover, biometric templates must be protected. Finally, acceptability of biometric systems requires fairness of the biometric algorithms and artificial neural networks used. Automated face recognition systems are widely adopted in different operational systems, ranging from authentication with smart personal devices to access control and forensics. This Perspective analyses the critical challenges and proposed solutions for the optimized use of these recognition systems.","PeriodicalId":501701,"journal":{"name":"Nature Reviews Electrical Engineering","volume":"1 11","pages":"748-757"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142600846","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
