In 2005, Science asked if it was possible to develop a magnetic semiconductor that could work at room temperature. Now, just fifteen years later, researchers have developed those materials in ...

(Nanowerk News) Magnets are used in so many of our everyday objects including cell phones and in the strip of a credit card or a hotel key. They even power the engine in your vacuum. And as most ...

Researchers have identified a new magnetic state that blends stability with electrical readout, a key challenge in future ...

Magnetic thin films have garnered significant attention due to their unique properties and dynamic behaviours that underpin modern spintronic applications. The interplay between reduced dimensionality ...

A team of international researchers led by the University of Ottawa has made a breakthrough in the development of ultra-thin magnets—a discovery that could lead to faster, more energy-efficient ...

A team of physicists at the Johns Hopkins Institute for Quantum Matter has discovered that they can control a metal's electromagnetic properties by manipulating it mechanically. The finding suggests ...

Magnetic skyrmions are extremely small and stable swirls of magnetization, often referred to as ‘topological quasi-particles’ since an emerging stability embraces this spin ensemble. As such, ...

Polymer thin-film optical cavities boost the magnetic sensing sensitivity of nanodiamond quantum sensors nearly fivefold ...

As our smartphones, laptops, and computers get smaller and faster, so do the transistors inside them that control the flow of electricity and store information. But traditional transistors can only ...
