On page 141 of this issue, Mazin and Johannes 3 argue the viewpoint that a new type of magnetic excitation lies at the root of the most basic behaviour of these ferropnictides, ...

Researchers use circularly polarized light to control the direction of exciton polaritons in 2D semiconductors, enabling new ...

We have discovered legions of strange particles that seem to only have a ghostly existence inside materials. Even so, they are the basis of much modern technology - so are they actually real?

Energy-tunable XPS reveals accurate surface chemistry of Ti3C2Tx MXenes, correcting for adsorbates and improving ...

Quantum dots are microscopic semiconductor crystals developed in the lab that share many properties with atoms, including the ability to absorb or emit light, a technology that Los Alamos researchers ...

Additionally, excitation testing and magnetic field measurements were conducted on the first magnet in a liquid helium environment. The findings provide key technical support for the design and ...

Oxford physicists set a new record in qubit fidelity, slashing single-qubit gate error rates to near-zero for scalable ...

By using gold nanorods as an example, we report the dynamic and reversible tuning of the plasmonic property of anisotropically shaped colloidal metal nanostructures by controlling their orientation ...

Optical excitation of magnetization dynamics in magnetic optical microcavity Abstract: Optical generation of the magnetostatic spin waves (MSWs) due to the inverse Faraday effect or photomagnetic ...

Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter (MPSD) have theoretically demonstrated that ...
