Market Dynamics

Global Spintronics Logic Device Market Drivers

Rising Demand for Spintronics in Electronic Devices

The widespread use of spintronics logic devices across various industries, particularly in automotive applications where connection reliability is crucial, has significantly impacted the market for spintronic logic devices globally. Due to their faster data transmission capabilities and increased storage capacity, spintronic logic devices are widely used in data storage devices. The advantages of spintronics-based circuits can be helpful in device-level operations, and one of them is non-volatility. The preservation of magnetization in spintronics devices without a power source comes naturally handy when creating memory devices and can be used advantageously in logic operations.

The ME coupling effect makes it possible to change the logic states that are stored in Ferromagnets at a low power cost, and it also improves energy scalability as future devices get smaller. With the proper material engineering, logic transfer using DW as a medium is a desirable option to achieve automation. The efficient transitions between the spin and charge states are made possible by spin-orbit coupling (SOC) processes such as the spin Hall effect (SHE) and Rashba-Edelstein effect (REE), which need less energy. Due to their underlying computation mechanisms, spin-based devices make it simpler to build logic.

Replacement to CMOS devices

Complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology has aggressively advanced and continuously scaled over the past 50 years. However, there have been increasing worries about increased power dissipation in large-scale integrated (VLSI) circuits and device performance/reliability issues. While this is happening, new challenges have emerged for the performance and reliability of electronic systems from emerging consumer electronics markets like autonomous driving platforms, mobile and distributed computing, and the internet of things (IoT). While widespread initiatives have advanced CMOS technology scaling, there is growing research interest in finding CMOS alternatives. Such efforts entail conceptualizing computational devices that could act as fundamental building blocks for new architectures, offering diversified computational functionality and better performance than the conventional CMOS-based paradigm. These devices would be based on new physics principles and new materials.

Spintronics is one of the most promising candidates for creating next-generation logic devices among these beyond-CMOS technologies. Utilizing the intrinsic property of spin, a physical manifestation of electron spin, spintronics creates the concept of state based on magnetism. However, to propose and evaluate the potential of new spin-based devices, accounting for the impact of novel material properties that govern the performance of these devices, this new technology necessitates the development and deployment of new simulation frameworks and design methodologies. These frameworks can also optimize these new technologies and ascertain how material and device parameters affect circuit performance.

Global Spintronics Logic Device Market Restraint

High Cost of Installation

Although using spintronic logic devices in automobiles helps to increase automation, the added cost prevents widespread adoption. Moreover, using this technology in cars driven continuously for an extended period causes heating problems and shortens the overall service life of temperature-sensitive power tools. As a result, this factor severely restricts the uptake of spintronic devices, limiting global market expansion. Other factors restraining the spintronics logic market are sustaining spin control over a long distance, combining methods from the magnetic and semiconductor recording industries, and losing electrons in their spin state when exposed to silicon.

Global Spintronics Logic Device Market Opportunities

Supportive Initiatives by Governments for Extensive Research

With the steady increase in awareness about the advantages of spintronics logic devices, the research and development in the industry have increased, along with government support through various types of grants to the researchers involved in developing new spintronic devices. 

The European Research Council (ERC) has provided a research team from the Technical University of Kaiserslautern (TUK) with a Consolidator Grant to create spintronic devices. The researchers will get EUR 2 million over the following five years (2022 to 2027). Researchers are developing new spintronic devices and spin waves that can potentially speed up data transmission, processing, and storage significantly.

Segmental Analysis

The global spintronics logic device market is segmented by device type and application.

Based on device types, the global market is bifurcated into metal-based devices and semiconductor-based devices.

The metal-based device segment is the highest contributor to the market and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 31.1% during the forecast period. The higher share is linked with the beneficial characteristics of antiferromagnetic metals in spintronics logic devices. Antiferromagnets look very promising for future spintronic applications. Despite being magnetically ordered, there is zero net magnetization because the neighboring magnetic moments point in opposite directions. As a result, antiferromagnets do not generate stray fields and are not affected by changes in the external magnetic field.

Furthermore, they exhibit significant spin-orbit and magneto-transport effects and inherent high-frequency dynamics. Antiferromagnets have more uses than just serving as passive components in exchange bias applications and have become clear over the past ten years. This development shifted a paradigm to pave the way for novel ideas utilizing antiferromagnets for spin-based technologies and applications.

In the metal-based device segment, the giant magnetoresistance-based device (GMRs) sub-segment is leading due to its adoption in the automotive industry and HDD production. In a GMR drive head, a non-magnetic layer is sandwiched between two ferromagnetic layers; one of the layers is free to align with the magnetic field encoded on the disc, while the other layer has a fixed magnetic field direction. It is called scattering when an electron moves via a magnetic field and changes its spin state. The random, dispersed spin states of electrons cause a higher resistance to electric current. By perfectly aligning the spin state of the electrons with the magnetic field in the layers of the drive head, GMR technology significantly reduces resistance and speeds up data transfer. Since IBM first introduced GMR technology in 1997, it has been possible to create faster and denser drives than ever before.

Based on application, the global market is bifurcated into electric vehicles, industrial motors, semiconductor lasers, magnetic tunnel transistors, and data storage devices.

The industrial motors segment owns the highest market share and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 32.3% during the forecast period. The larger market share is linked with the rise in industrialization in developing countries and the demand for automation in the manufacturing sector to support increased production. Improved efficiency and lower overall labor costs are attributed to the demand for spintronic logic devices in the industrial motor segment. Additionally, the increased use of industrial robots and the expansion of power grids, which use a variety of rotary torque sensors to measure rotational forces, are creating lucrative opportunities for spintronic logic devices in industrial applications.
