The entry of quantum computers into society is currently hindered by their sensitivity to disturbances in the environment. Researchers from Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden, and Aalto ...

The third type of magnetism could prove the most useful of all—if researchers can identify the materials that exhibit it.

Step into a world so tiny, it defies imagination -- the nanoscale. Picture a single strand of hair, now shrink it a million times. You've arrived. Here, atoms and molecules are the architects of ...

Individual atoms with an odd number of electrons have a magnetic moment from the spin of the unpaired electron. Materials consisting of elements with an even number of electrons—such as carbon, ...

This course introduces the basic concepts of magnetism and magnetically ordered materials (ferromagnets, ferrimagnets, and antiferromagnets), spin-dependent electron transport in such materials, and ...

Introduction to Magnetism provides a thorough overview of magnetism and how it relates to electricity. Magnetism is a force of attraction and repulsion that occurs when the molecules in a material ...

Susan Clark is helping to unravel the mysterious workings of the Milky Way’s magnetic field, a critical missing piece of the galactic puzzle. Amid the roilings of the Milky Way, immense pockets of gas ...

Scientists have made a path-breaking discovery in strontium ruthenate -- with potential for new applications in quantum electronics. Scientists have made a path-breaking discovery in strontium ...
