The disclosed technology relates to a logic device based on spin waves. In one aspect, the logic device includes a spin wave generator, a waveguide, at least two phase shifters, and an output port. The spin wave generator is connected with the waveguide and is configured to emit a spin wave in the waveguide. The at least two phase shifters are connected with the waveguide at separate positions such that, when a spin wave is emitted by the spin wave generator, it passes via the phase shifters. The at least two phase shifters are configured to change a phase of the passing spin wave. The output port is connected with the wave guide such that the at least two phase shifters are present between the spin wave generator and the output port.

The disclosed technology generally relates to computation devices, and more particularly to majority gate devices configured for computation based on spin waves. In one aspect, a majority gate device comprises cells that are configurable as spin wave generators or spin wave detectors.
