Modern electronics are a far cry from what Michael Faraday, the pioneer of electrical gadgetry, can ever have imagined possible. But he’d surely be pleased, if only because the magnet, the component ...

For years, scientists noticed that magnetic fields could improve steel, but no one knew exactly why. New simulations reveal that magnetism changes how iron atoms behave, making it harder for carbon ...

Florida State University researchers have created a new crystalline material with unusual magnetic patterns that could be used for breakthroughs in data storage and quantum technologies. In a study ...

Artificial intelligence is colliding with a hard physical limit: the energy and heat of today’s silicon-based chips. As models grow from billions to trillions of parameters, the bottleneck is no ...

Scientists have shown that twisting a crystal at the nanoscale can turn it into a tiny, reversible diode, hinting at a new era of shape-engineered electronics.

Researchers have identified an unexpected link between atomic magnetism and carbon mobility in steel. Researchers at the ...

Magnetic sensors quietly underpin everything from smartphone compasses to the stability systems that keep electric vehicles on the road, and the race to make them smaller, faster and more sensitive is ...

Physicist Davide Bossini from the University of Konstanz demonstrates how to change the frequency of the collective magnetic oscillations of a material by up to 40% – using commercially available ...

Researchers used epitaxial strain on ultra-thin ruthenium oxide layers to induce magnetism in a material typically known for being metallic but nonmagnetic. (Nanowerk News) In a new study, researchers ...

By shining a focused laser beam onto a sample of material, a team at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) and ETH Zürich showed ...

Researchers studied a potassium cobalt arsenate honeycomb, uncovering magnetic behaviors that may lead to quantum spin ...
