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

With magnetic fields, one could then switch the magnetization of one of the layers back and forth to create “spintronic” logic circuits, ones that operate not only under the usual control of electric ...

For nearly 20 years, physicists and engineers have chased the idea of invisibility. Early efforts focused on hiding objects from light using so-called metamaterials with extreme and often unrealistic ...

Magnetic nanowires are one-dimensional nanostructures that exhibit unique magnetic behaviours strongly dependent on their composition, morphology, and fabrication methodology. These structures have ...

The study reports on the development of core–shell magnetic nanocomposites coated with bioactive glass for combined bone cancer therapy and regeneration of the injured bone area. The magnetic ...

A new “double perovskite” material could become a more environmentally friendly platform for spintronics devices thanks to its lead-free nature. While the material in its current form is only magnetic ...

Columbia physicist Isidor Isaac Rabi discovered nuclear magnetic resonance in the 1930s. Today, it lets doctors look inside patients.

Patterning magnetic landscapes has recently emerged as a powerful avenue to achieve new functionalities in existing materials ...

The origins of magnetic steel can be traced back to the 18 th century when scientists began experimenting with iron alloys. In 1820, Hans Christian Oersted's accidental discovery of electromagnetism ...

A fundamental property of magnetism has been disclosed through new research. The discovery may be key to development of a new generation of powerful computers. Our electronics can no longer shrink and ...
