Repost by PHY ORG. Written and published by Mike Williams, Rice University Click here to view the full news article. Summary: Valleytronics. You may have heard of spintronics, which is creating bits based on the spin state of an electron. Valleytronics is related to spintronics by the fact that now electrons have degrees of freedom in the multiple momentum states (valleys) as well which can be read as bits as well. This is a new field of research with only one book published about yet, Valleytronics in 2D materials. What I think is interesting is that the valleys are able to create an electromagnetic field in the material without any external influence! Do read more in the article or if you are really interested, find out more in the book. Credit: Wiley
