NVE
Corporation
NVE is a leader in the practical commercialization of spintronics,
a nanotechnology that many experts believe represents the
next generation of microelectronics. NVE licenses its MRAM
intellectual property and sells spintronic products, including
sensors and couplers, to revolutionize data sensing and
transmission. The company currently sells most of its products
into factory automation applications. NVE continues to gain
a presence in the medical market, and is currently targeting
automotive electronics for the future. NVE designs CMOS
and bipolar foundry wafers and adds spintronics at its own
factory. The spintronics portions of NVE's designs use a
unique library of intricate structures and design rules.
Spintronics uses exotic metal films including ruthenium,
chromium, platinum, and manganese. NVE relies on nanometer
layer thicknesses where mind-bending effects kick inconductors
become insulators and insulators become conductors.

An NVE BioMagnetIC sensor uses spintronic sensor elements
for biological assays. Applications include ultra-miniature
biological warfare agent detectors and laboratory-on-a chip
diagnostic systems.
