Graphene and Cobalt used to make a spin-controlled material

Researchers from the University of South Florida and the University of Kentucky managed to create a material the spin of the electrons can be set in a controlled manner. The team suggest using cobalt atoms on a graphene sheet.

The researchers have used state-of-the-art theoretical computations to prove this, they haven't actually made the material and controlled the spin.
