A single, ultrafast laser pulse has flipped the polarity of a ferromagnet without first heating it to the brink of losing its ...

A laser trick in nanometer-thin magnets hints at faster storage and computing without exotic laboratory conditions ...

All ferromagnetic materials have atomic magnetic moments that are aligned parallel to each other within small regions called domains. Within these domains, the spontaneous magnetization present is ...

A superconductor can switch the magnetic moment of a single-molecule magnet placed on top of it. This novel phenomenon, discovered by researchers in Italy, occurs because of quantum tunnelling of ...

A new framework for understanding the nonmonotonic temperature dependence and sign reversal of the chirality-related ...

An Auburn University study finds that magnetic fields can guide electrons in plasma much like traffic signals, giving ...

Free electron X-ray lasers deliver intense ultrashort pulses of x-rays, which can be used to image nanometer-scale objects in a single shot. When the x-ray wavelength is tuned to an electronic ...

The magnet is the characteristic substance that draws in the ferromagnetic material like iron or nickel by the force of attraction. Individuals depend on magnets for industrial and commercial use.
