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 ...

Electron spin patterns affect electronic fields like solid state hard drives and superconductors. Scientists have recently crafted and taken images of a novel new magnetic substance known as an ...

One of the earliest debates in correlated electron physics was whether a theory of magnetism in ferromagnetic transition metals, such as iron and nickel, should start by treating the electrons as ...

Today, thanks to the theory of quantum mechanics we now understand the nature of magnetism, too, with the concept of spin explaining the behaviour of elementary particles such as electrons in the ...

The integration of single-spin magnetoelectronics into standard silicon technology may soon be possible, if experiments confirm a new theoretical prediction made by physicists. The integration of ...

The findings reveal a novel link between magnetism and electricity, and may have applications in electronics. ... New electron spin secrets revealed Date: November 10, 2014 Source: ...

Scientists have found an elusive third form of magnetism that could help solve a longstanding puzzle about superconductors.
