For over 100 years, physicists, chemists, and materials scientists have developed extensive theoretical and experimental machinery to predict and characterize the electronic properties of magnetic ...

Georgetown University researchers have discovered a new class of strong magnets that do not rely on rare-earth or precious metals—a breakthrough that could significantly advance clean energy ...

A research team at Fudan University in Shanghai has achieved a breakthrough in the study of a class of magnetic materials that could help pave the way for faster and more energy-efficient computer ...

For the first time, scientists have imaged an entirely new form of magnetism called altermagnetism. The researchers used cutting-edge x-ray techniques to visualize and fine-tune this novel magnetic ...

X-rays are shone onto the magnetic material and the electrons given off from the surface are detected using a special microscope. This allows an image to be produced of the magnetism in the material ...

Imagine shining a flashlight into a material and watching the light bend backward—or in an entirely unexpected direction—as ...

Magnetism is a property of matter that has been known to mankind for several thousand years, long before these properties could be described in a theory. In our everyday lives, we are used to ...

A Czech and Spanish-led research team has demonstrated the ability to distinguish subtle differences between magnetic ground states using a new form of scanning probe microscopy.

Physicist Davide Bossini from the University of Konstanz demonstrates how to change the frequency of the collective magnetic oscillations of a material by up to 40% – using commercially available ...
