Popis: Ferrimagnets composed of multiple and antiferromagnetically coupled magnetic elements have attracted much attention recently as a material platform for spintronics. They offer the combined advantages of both ferromagnets and antiferromagnets, namely the easy control and detection of their net magnetization by an external field, antiferromagnetic-like dynamics faster than ferromagnetic dynamics and the potential for high-density devices. This Review summarizes recent progress in ferrimagnetic spintronics, with particular attention to the most-promising functionalities of ferrimagnets, which include their spin transport, spin texture dynamics and all-optical switching.
