Abstract- In our electronic world, since the discovery of electron by J J Thomson in 1897, scientists have been working strenuously to build the Digital World that we enjoy today. To satisfy a common man‘s need, researchers have been scratching the very basis of electronics – ‗Electron‘. All that we are using today is the flow of a bundle of electrons to determine the electronic outcome instead of the basic property of electron, which is to ‗Spin‘. They started exploiting this property leading to the rise of a new technology – Spintronics. Spintronics came into lime light in 1988 when French an
