Consequently, this energy transfer causes the rearrangement into a magnetic structure, which is stabilized by the subsequent rapid cooling. In follow-up experiments, the researchers aim to observe ...

A single ultrashort laser pulse can change the magnetization of a suitable material. But even within a magnetic film of just a few nanometer ...

A diagram of the material developed using on-axis magnetron sputtering. By applying a current through the platinum material on top of the TmIG, researchers were able to reverse the magnetization ...

Electrons inherently carry both spin and orbital angular momentum (i.e., properties that help to understand the rotating motions and behavior of particles). While some physicists and engineers have ...

Research from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities gives new insight into a material that could make computer memory faster and more energy-efficient. The study was recently published in Advanced ...

In a recent breakthrough, researchers from Japan discovered a unique Hall effect resulting from deflection of electrons due ...

What is a Spin Valve? A spin valve is a device that exploits the spin-dependent electron transport properties of ferromagnetic materials to control the flow of electrons. It consists of two ...

Scientists have discovered that electron spin loss, long considered waste, can instead drive magnetization switching in spintronic devices, boosting efficiency by up to three times. The scalable, ...
