Magnetic materials have become indispensable to various technologies that support our modern society, such as data storage ...

Electronics is concerned with two key ingredients: electron charge and spin ... electric charge and spin. This spin is the origin of magnetic moments. One of the pioneers in studying the modern ...

The source of electron conduction is electron hopping, while also tending to maximize their magnetic moment. This conduction electron spin is always parallel to the local magnetic moment, and a source ...

Scientists have long suspected that phosphorene nanoribbons (PNRs) – thin pieces of black phosphorus, only a few nanometres ...

Zhu and his group acquired the U.S.'s first dedicated Lorentz transmission electron microscope (LTEM) at Brookhaven two decades ago to image spin structures in magnetic materials and thin films.

Magnetic materials are typically divided into ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic types, depending on their magnetic moments (electron ... due to alternating electron spin, but they differ in ...

A transistor made from bilayer A-type antiferromagnet CrPS 4 provides control over the spin polarization ... hopping of electron–hole pairs in a two-dimensional magnetic semiconductor, leading ...

The resulting excited electron and the hole it left ... an antiferromagnetic system, in which the magnetic moments—usually referred to as "spin"—of the system's particles align in a regular ...

Iridium-doped iron-cobalt (Fe-Co-Ir) alloys, previously identified through machine learning, have been shown to have enhanced magnetic ... electron localization and stronger spin-orbit coupling ...

Addition of iridium leads to increased electron ... stronger spin-orbit coupling between 3d electrons of iron and cobalt and 5d electrons of iridium, significantly enhancing the magnetic moments.
