Painfully accurate

Spintronics (or spin based computing) is technically a shift away from the traditional 1 and 0 data computing, into superimposed states.  It's more of an application of quantum computing, though I am not sure I would consider it to be computing in the terahertz frequency.

Furthermore raw frequency means absolutely nothing on its own. I'm sure we could have a 2 bit computer running at a THz no problem.

  Reveal hidden contents

seriously though:

first question would be "how susceptible is it from electromagnetic interference" ._.

 

 Pretty much, this is nowhere near being useful in phones or otherwise. The title (both the article's and the post's) are about as clickbait as it gets.

At minimum you need to have quote from source summing it and your own thoughts.

I was just quoting what the article said "In addition, the operation frequency of spin waves is in the terahertz range." Now maybe if/when it is applied to computing it wouldn't get to that point, I don't know.

AFAIK magnetic spin states in a magnetic material are not quite the same level as QM spin states. As long as they are coherent, you can use them in a classical way (up/down) and no need to use the quantum (between up and down) method.
