    Abstract: This disclosure describes various examples of spintronic temperature sensors. The example temperature sensors may be discrete or used to adaptively control operation of a component such as an integrated circuit (IC). In one example, an electronic device comprises a spintronic component configured such that the conductance of the spintronic component is based on sensed temperature. In one example, circuitry coupled to the spintronic component is configured to generate an electrical signal indicative of the sensed temperature based on the conductance of the spintronic component.

    Abstract: Techniques are described for data transfer in spin-based systems where digital bit values are represented by magnetization states of magnetoresistive devices rather than voltages or currents. For data transmission, a spin-based signal is converted to an optical signal and transmitted via an optical transport. For data reception, the optical signal is received via the optical transport and converted back to a spin-based signal. Such data transfer may not require an intervening conversion of the spin-based signal to charge-based signal that relies on voltages or currents to represent digital bit values. In addition, techniques are described to use magnetoresistive devices to control the amount of current or voltage that is delivered, where the magnetization state of the magnetoresistive device is set by an optical signal.

    Abstract: In some examples, a method including depositing a functional layer over a substrate; depositing a granular layer over the functional layer, the granular layer including a first material defining a plurality of grains separated by a second material defining grain boundaries of the plurality of grains; removing the second material from the granular layer such that the plurality of grains of the granular layer define a hard mask layer on the functional layer; and removing, via reactive ion etching with a carrier gas, portions of the functional layer not masked by the hard mask layer, wherein the carrier gas comprises a gas with an atomic number less than an atomic number of argon.
