UD researchers develop optical method to detect magnetic behavior of antiferromagnets, paving the way for advanced computing ...

Imagine computer hardware that is blazing fast and stores more data in less space. That's the promise of antiferromagnets, ...

Vinod M. Menon and his research group at The City College of New York shows that trapping light inside magnetic materials may dramatically enhance their intrinsic properties. Strong optical responses ...

A new study shows that trapping light inside magnetic materials may dramatically enhance their intrinsic properties. Strong optical responses of magnets are important for the development of magnetic ...

May 4 (UPI) --Circulators direct light on optical chips, a process essential to communication technology. The component relies on a tiny magnet, but miniaturizing magnets is difficult. Enter the ...

By shining a focused laser beam onto a sample of material, a team at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) and ETH Zürich showed ...

It's not unheard of for outdoorsy types to have a flashlight, headlamp and bike headlight. The HeadSpin is designed to function as all three, and more, thanks to a twisting magnetic mounting system.

In a new study out of Japan, researchers have demonstrated the ability to use a laser to control the motion of a magnetically levitating graphite disk. Laser moves graphite disk in the direction of ...

A team of US researchers from the universities of Ohio State and Utah has developed the first magnetic plastic whose magnetism is tuned by light. The plastic becomes 1.5 times more magnetic when blue ...
