Researchers at the University of Basel and the ETH in Zurich have succeeded in changing the polarity of a special ferromagnet ...

Scientists have demonstrated that light alone can reversibly control magnetism in a topological material. Researchers at the University of Basel and ETH Zurich have found a way to flip the magnetic ...

Magnetic skyrmions are stable quasi-particles that can be generated in (some) ferromagnetic materials with conceivable solutions in electronics, assuming they can be created and moved at will. The ...

Exchange-coupled interfaces offer a powerful route to stabilising and enhancing ferromagnetic properties in two-dimensional materials, such as transition metal chalcogenides. These materials exhibit ...

Magnetic memory techniques have emerged as a promising non‐destructive evaluation (NDE) approach to assess the stress state and detect early damage in ferromagnetic materials. By utilising the ...

Chromium(III) Telluride (Cr 2 Te 3) is an interesting material for (ferro)magnetic applications, with Yao Wen and colleagues reporting in a 2020 Nano Letters paper that they confirmed it to show ...

A research team has revealed the microscopic origin of the large magnetoelectric effect in interfacial multiferroics composed of the ferromagnetic Co2FeSi Heusler alloy and the piezoelectric material.

The rules about magnetic order may need to be rewritten. An international team of researchers found that it was possible to turn a non-magnetic material into a magnetic material by slicing it into ...

In 1966, Mermin and Wagner theoretically predicted that while ferromagnetic order can be stabilized in three-dimensional systems, it cannot be sustained in two-dimensional isotropic systems due to ...
