Abstract
A device including a spin channel to transport a spin current, a nano-oscillator, and a magnetoresistive device that receives the spin current from the nano-oscillator. The nano-oscillator includes a magnetization state that oscillates between a first state and a second state in response to an input voltage or current. The oscillation of the nano-oscillator may induce the spin current within the spin channel. The magnetoresistive device includes a magnetization state that is set based at least in part on the received spin current.
