A new review highlights exciting progress in atomically thin quantum materials where light and magnetism work together in ...

Scientists at Penn State and Saint Louis University have demonstrated that a magnetic quantum ...

Understanding the influence of quasiperiodicity on magnetic fluctuations could ultimately enable the design of materials with ...

Materials with magnetic nanostructures have a wide range of potential applications. One area is so-called spintronics, with ...

Researchers at City College of New York physicist Vinod M. Menon's Laboratory for Nano and Micro Photonics (LaNMP) have ...

Modern electronics are a far cry from what Michael Faraday, the pioneer of electrical gadgetry, can ever have imagined possible. But he’d surely be pleased, if only because the magnet, the component ...

Today's computers store information using only two values: 0 and 1. But as electronic devices become smaller and reach their limits, scientists are searching for new ways to pack more information into ...

Scientists at North Carolina State University (NCSU) have created a magnetic “metasheet” that can move objects and liquids around without needing robot arms or grippers. The device is essentially a ...

“Magnets, how do they work?” asked Insane Clown Posse, a hip-hop duo, in their 2009 song “Miracles”. A flurry of recent papers suggests physicists did not quite have the full picture either. A new ...

Every text message, photograph, and saved file still comes down to a simple bargain: information is stored as either 0 or 1. That binary system built modern computing, and for decades engineers kept ...
