Light beams of varying intensities (yellow cylinders) help visualize magnetic domains (light and dark areas), separated by domain walls (red lines). When something draws us in like a magnet, we take a ...

Researchers discovered a new mechanism for faster, more efficient magnetic domain wall motion using dual spin torques in cobalt-iridium-platinum multilayers. In spintronic memory, information is ...

Everyone knows that holding two magnets together will lead to one of two results: they stick together, or they push each other apart. From this perspective, magnetism seems simple, but scientists have ...

A magnetometer is a device that measures magnetism: the direction, strength, or relative change of a magnetic field at a ...

Scientists have found an elusive third form of magnetism that could help solve a longstanding puzzle about superconductors. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...

One of the common modes of scanning probe microscopy (SPM) is Magnetic force microscopy (MFM). As indicated by the name, SPM is used to map magnetic properties. On the nanoscale, MFM probes local ...

Scientists have used light to visualize magnetic domains, and manipulated these regions using an electric field, in a quantum antiferromagnet. This method allows real-time observation of magnetic ...

(Nanowerk News) When something draws us in like a magnet, we take a closer look. When magnets draw in physicists, they take a quantum look. Scientists from Osaka Metropolitan University and the ...
