Samuel Bladwell from the University of New South Wales brought the spin to FameLab Australia, serving up research on the relationship between the rotation and motion of an electron in semiconductors.

Spin-orbit couple occurs between the rotation and motion of an electron. It’s this couple that alters the behaviour of electrons. Through his research, Samuel Bladwell hopes to improve technology, and perhaps even pioneer a new type of a spin, rather than charge based electronic.
