Abstract

There is provided a complementary spin transistor logic circuit, including: a parallel spin transistor that includes a magnetized first source, a first drain magnetized in parallel with the magnetization direction of the first source, a first channel layer and a first gate electrode; and an anti-parallel spin transistor that includes a magnetized second source, a second drain magnetized in anti-parallel with the magnetization direction of the second source, a second channel layer and a second gate electrode, wherein the first gate electrode and the second gate electrode are connected to a common input terminal.
