The spin wave logic device is very elegant from a physical point of view, but whether it will really make a device is very difficult to say," New Scientist quoted Del Atkinson from Durham University in the UK as saying.
We have developed approximate expressions for the neutron spin wave function and the projection of the spin on the field as the neutron moves in space where the field direction and magnitude changes.
