Twisting atomically thin magnetic layers does more than reshape their electronics—it can create giant, topological magnetic textures. In chromium triiodide, researchers observed skyrmion-like patterns ...

Scientists from IFJ PAN in cooperation with researchers from the Nara Women's University (Japan) and the Jagiellonian University (Poland) took another important step towards building a functional ...

Recent technological advances have opened new possibilities for the development of advanced medical devices, including tiny robots that can safely move inside the human body. Some of these systems ...

Osaka, Japan – One of the most important tasks in modern information technologies is controlling spin directions in magnets. State-of-the-art hard disk drives and large-volume magnetic storage used in ...

Scientists have shown for the first time the maximum theoretical limit of energy needed to control the magnetization of a single atom. The fundamental work can have great implications for the future ...

In a paper published in Scientific Reports, scientists at Oak Ridge National Labs present 3D printed permanent isotropic magnets that use rare earth metals recycled from computer hard drives. The ...

Japanese scientists are proposing a new material for use in the permanent magnets of electric vehicle motors. The incumbent technology – neodymium-iron-boron, sometimes with dysprosium – works well, ...
