The Economic Times reported that scientists have shown that information can flow through a diamond wire. In the future, the discovery could be used to make faster computers.
As quoted in the market news:
In the experiment, electrons did not flow through diamond as they do in traditional electronics.
Rather, they stayed in place and passed along a magnetic effect called ‘spin’ to each other down the wire – like a row of sports spectators doing ‘the wave’.
This spin could one day be used to transmit data in computer circuits, researchers said.
