The field of ultrafast magnetism explores how flashes of light can manipulate a material's magnetization in trillionths of a ...

It is anticipated that within just a few decades, the surging volume of digital data will constitute one of the world's ...

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

Ferrimagnets are a special type of magnet where different atoms' magnetic moments partially cancel each other out, creating a ...

Until now, when scientists created magnetic robots, their magnetization profiles were generally fixed, enabling only a ...

Controlling magnetization dynamics with a femtosecond laser is attracting interest both in fundamental science and in industry because of the potential to achieve magnetic switching at ever faster ...

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 ...

Spintronics -- based on the principles of electron charge and magnetic spin -- goes beyond the limits of conventional electronics. However, spintronic devices are yet to see advances, because ...

Repeatable magnetization reversal under purely electrical control remains the outstanding goal in magnetoelectrics. Here we use magnetic force microscopy to study a commercially manufactured ...

Stabilising curve: The arrows show the remnant magnetisation of a toroidal nanomagnet. On the outer edge (the right) we can see a vortex where the magnetisation spirals inwards to a point. An ...

With its ability to change shape instantly, this Matryoshka doll-inspired robot is more than a clever design—it may be the ...
