Abstract

In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a magnet, a first structure, and a second structure. The first structure includes a first conductive trace and a magnetoelectric material. The first conductive trace is coupled to an input voltage terminal, and the magnetoelectric material is coupled to the first conductive trace and the magnet. The second structure includes a superlattice structure and a second conductive trace. The superlattice structure includes one or more topological insulator materials. Moreover, the superlattice structure is coupled to the magnet and the second conductive trace, and the second conductive trace is coupled to an output voltage terminal.
