Artificial intelligence is colliding with a hard physical limit: the energy and heat of today’s silicon-based chips. As ...

A research team has demonstrated that thin films of ruthenium dioxide (RuO₂) exhibit altermagnetism—the defining property of what is now recognized as the third fundamental class of magnetic materials ...

A joint research team from the National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS), the University of Tokyo, Kyoto Institute of ...

Researchers in Japan have shown that a common oxide material, when engineered precisely enough, can exhibit a rare magnetic ...

“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 ...

Molecule-based magnets like vanadium tetracyanoethylene are extremely sensitive to air, impeding their use in practical quantum devices. Researchers coated vanadium tetracyanoethylene with an ...

A research team from NIMS, Tohoku University and AIST has developed a new technique for controlling the nanostructures and magnetic domain structures of iron-based soft amorphous ribbons, achieving ...

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 ...
