Abstract
A spin transistor includes: an input part that is made of a material exhibiting a spin Hall effect and configured to transfer electrons with a predetermined direction of spin to a connecting part; and the connecting part that receives the electrons with the predetermined direction of spin from the input part, rotates the spin of the electrons in accordance with a gate voltage applied to the gate electrode, and transfers the electrons to the output part.
