Coupled atom magnetism

In modern times more and more technology is used during the day. All this technology is based on logic operators that work with electric currents. One of the ways to make these logic operators more energy efficient is to make magnetic logic operators. But, to make magnetic logic operators applicable in everyday life, we still need to learn a lot about them. Therefore I’m giving a summary of different types of coupled atom magnetism on surfaces, which eventually could be used to make logic operators consisting of only a few atoms. This is an improvement in both size and energy efficiency, but there is still a long way to go.
