Abstract
A logic device is described. The logic device includes magnetic input/channel regions, magnetic sensor region(s), and sensor(s) coupled with the magnetic sensor region(s). Each magnetic input/channel region is magnetically biased in a first direction. The magnetic sensor region(s) are magnetically biased in a second direction different from the first direction such that domain wall(s) reside in the magnetic input/channel regions if the logic device is in a quiescent state. The sensor(s) output a signal based on a magnetic state of the magnetic sensor region(s). The input/channel regions and the magnetic sensor region(s) are configured such that the domain wall(s) may move into the magnetic sensor region(s) in response to a logic signal being provided to the magnetic input region(s). The magnetic input/channel region(s) include FeCoNiM1M2, with x+y+z+q1+q2=1, x, y, z, q1, q2 at least zero and M1 and M2 being nonmagnetic.
