Non-magnetic material made magnetic using electricity for the first time By Michael Irving July 30, 2020 Researchers have induced magnetism in pyrite, a non-magnetic material, using electricity ...

Researchers have succeeded in bringing wireless technology to the fundamental level of magnetic devices. The emergence and control of magnetic properties in cobalt nitride layers (initially ...

Albert Fert, French physicist and winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2007, is one of the discoverers of giant magnetoresistance, a physical effect that revolutionised hard disk technology, ...

The boundary modes of topological insulators are protected by the symmetries of the nontrivial bulk electronic states. Unless these symmetries are broken, they can give rise to novel phenomena, such ...

(Nanowerk News) A new study at Monash University illustrates how substrates affect strong electronic interactions in two-dimensional metal-organic frameworks (npj Computational Materials, "Correlation ...

New research details the first ever conversion of a non-magnetic material into a permanent magnet using electricity. The researchers seek cheaper, more plentiful magnetic materials to use in solar ...

Researchers report that room temperature illumination of a photosensitive perovskite material, sandwiched with a thin ferromagnetic film, can drive an electronic charge from the perovskite to the ...

Modern steel ships warp a magnetic compass with both permanent and induced magnetism, and the binnacle is packed with clever countermeasures to cancel it out. This breaks down hard iron vs soft iron ...
