Recent advances in new materials engineering holds a promise of surmounting the miniaturization limits of silicon technology by exploiting the spin of electrons in semiconductors. Spin transistor is among a number of nanoscale devices that may revolutionize telecommunications, computing and daily life. Current transistors are electronic circuits that make up most semiconductors; an international market will grow to US$1000bn per year in 2013. In a few years, the spin transistor will be on par with electronics. Success of this program will facilitate the development of spintronic materials and technologies, and also generated patents and intellectual properties, thus resulting in revenue for Australia through their commercialisations.

新材料工程的最新进展有望通过利用半导体中电子的自旋来突破硅技术的小型化限制。自旋晶体管是许多纳米级器件之一，可能会给电信、计算和日常生活带来革命性的变化。目前的晶体管是构成大多数半导体的电子电路；到2013年，国际市场将增长到每年1万亿美元。几年后，自旋晶体管将与电子技术并肩。该项目的成功将促进自旋电子材料和技术的发展，并产生专利和知识产权，从而通过其商业化为澳大利亚带来收入。
