Three-dimensional magnetic vortices have been discovered by scientists from the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf in Germany together with colleagues from the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland ...

Magnets often harbor hidden beauty. Take a simple fridge magnet: Somewhat counterintuitively, it is 'sticky' on one side but not the other. The secret lies in the way the magnetisation is arranged in ...

Materials that can maintain a magnetized state by themselves without an external magnetic field (i.e., permanent magnets) are called ferromagnets. Ferroelectrics can be thought of as the electric ...

“Skyrmions,” in which electron spins inside a magnet are arranged like vortices, are a key structure in next-generation spintronics technology. KAIST researchers have shown that skyrmions can form ...

Physicists show that magnetoelastic coupling, present in nearly all magnets, can generate skyrmion arrays without crystal asymmetry or spin-orbit coupling. (Nanowerk News) Physicists have proposed a ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers from NTNU are shedding light on magnetic materials at small scales by creating movies with the help of some extremely bright x-rays. The tiny square magnets, created by ...

In this analogy, a vortex at the center of a water tank replaces the solenoid that creates a magnetic field in the quantum ...
