Researchers have demonstrated that electron orbitals, not just spin, can serve as a practical lever for controlling magnetism ...

The chirality lies in the geometry Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) image of nickel-based artificial chiral magnets ...

Electrons are tiny and constantly in motion. How they behave in a crystal lattice determines key material properties: electrical conductivity, magnetism, or novel quantum effects. Anyone aiming to ...

The left side of the figure schematically shows how a series of two-dimensional scanning electron microscopy images of an ultrafine-grained Nd-Fe-B magnet were transformed into a three-dimensional ...

The electronic and magnetic properties of two-dimensional materials both have strong potential for technological applications. Researchers have long assumed that they are distinct phenomena, but ...

Permanent magnets, the kind found on refrigerators everywhere, exist because their constituent atoms behave as miniature magnets. They align and combine to form the larger magnet in a phenomenon ...

A new magnetic material breakthrough has been achieved by scientists, which can indirectly lead to the end of the current memory and storage crisis.

Electron microscopy is a powerful technique that provides high-resolution images by focusing a beam of electrons to reveal fine structural details in biological and material specimens. 2 Because ...

Materials scientists from the City University of Hong Kong propose using transistors made of mixed-dimensional nanowires and nanoflakes to create multivalued logic devices. By combining GaAsSb ...
