Development of magnetic storage space.

We have often stressed that magnets are essential, especially in the field of technology because they are used in the development of different functions.

Often we do not consider them as active, so we can not even be aware of their importance for the proper functioning of technological devices. We have already covered the use of magnets to record data and in today's article we would like to take a closer look at the latest developments in magnetic storage space. Specifically spintronics, which will probably be used more and more in the future for so-called quantum micro-devices.

Use of spintronics for magnetic data storage.

Researchers from international universities around the world have already dealt with the subject and made various developments to optimize the magnetic storage of data. A wide variety of solutions have already emerged, so that data can now also be stored on magnetic media using laser-activated heat, which is faster and allows the acquisition of large quantities of data.

This technology is called HAMR - Heat Assisted Magnetic Recording.

On the other hand, there is also the microwave magnetic data storage variant, the MAMR - Micro-assist-Magnetic Recording.

However, the researchers are not yet satisfied with it and have continued their research and developed a magnetic storage using spintronics based on tunnel contacts. The capacity of hard drives can be considerably increased and at the same time their power consumption is reduced. Which is of course a great advantage. Researchers call this technology a new generation of magnetic data storage, and therefore a technology that will be a pioneer in the future.
