Modern low-power solutions to computer memory rely heavily on the manipulation of the magnetic properties of materials.

Researchers use hydrogen's catalytic action in platinum to reverse magnetization loss, boosting durability of thin-film ...

The research team has identified atacamite as a material with magnetocaloric properties. Natural crystals have long ...

Control of magnetism by applied voltage is desirable for spintronics applications. Finding a suitable material remains an elusive goal, with only a few candidates found so far. Graphene is one of ...

In this “kinetic magnetism” the material becomes magnetic because the energy of motion of the electrons is minimized when their magnetic moments align. To detect this effect, the researchers produced ...

MIT physicists have demonstrated a new form of magnetism that could one day be harnessed to build faster, denser, and less power-hungry "spintronic" memory chips.
