The discovery of graphene has motivated scientists to explore a wide range of layered, atomically-thin 2D materials. One of the most astounding discoveries was that such monoatomic layers could be ...

An international team has detected an unusual ferromagnetic property in a two-dimensional system, known as 'easy-plane anisotropy.' This could foster new energy efficient information technologies ...

Magnetic skyrmions are stable quasi-particles that can be generated in (some) ferromagnetic materials with conceivable solutions in electronics, assuming they can be created and moved at will. The ...

Researchers have succeeded in storing electricity with the voltage generated from ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) using a nanometer-thin magnetic film. Exploring the storage characteristics of the ...

Although electrosurgery has proven to be an invaluable surgical modality for the cutting and coagulation of biological tissue, physicians have been playing with fire in terms of patient safety.

Giant magnetoresistance (GMR) is a quantum mechanical effect observed in thin film structures composed of alternating ferromagnetic and non-magnetic layers. It is characterized by a significant change ...

Researchers at the Tokyo Institute of Technology used pulsed laser deposition to install multiferroic BFCO onto a conductive Nb: SrTiO 3 (001) substrate, according to a study published in the journal ...
