A team of researchers has proposed a new concept for magnet-based memory devices, which might revolutionize information storage devices owing to their potential for large-scale integration, ...

Researchers demonstrate how to change the frequency of the collective magnetic oscillations of a material by up to 40% by using commercially available devices at room temperature. (Nanowerk News) ...

A team has been developing a new type of laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT) for laser printing using an optical vortex, which has been dubbed OV-LIFT. The team succeeded in printing crystals with ...

Kirsten von Bergmann and André Kubetzka explain the nature of a type of quasiparticle known as a magnetic skyrmion, which looks promising as a “bit” for future data-storage technology (Courtesy: ...

As the digital world demands greater data storage and faster access times, magnetic memory technologies have emerged as a promising frontier. However, conventional magnetic memory devices have an ...

Unusual electronic behavior in a specific form of the material could help pack more data into magnetic memory devices. Graphene, a form of carbon consisting of a single layer of atoms linked in a ...

Heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) and hard disk drive (HDD) technologies represent a significant leap forward in data storage, promising substantially higher areal densities through the precise ...

What is a Spin Valve? A spin valve is a device that exploits the spin-dependent electron transport properties of ferromagnetic materials to control the flow of electrons. It consists of two ...

“One individual atom fixed to a substrate is usually so sensitive that it keeps its magnetic orientation for mere fractions of a microsecond (200 nanoseconds),” explains Wulf Wulfhekel from Karlsruhe ...
