A laser trick in nanometer-thin magnets hints at faster storage and computing without exotic laboratory conditions ...

Researchers demonstrate how to change the frequency of the collective magnetic oscillations of a material by up to 40% by ...

By shining a focused laser beam onto a sample of material, a team at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) and ETH Zürich showed ...

Florida State University scientists have engineered a new crystal that forces atomic magnets to swirl into complex, repeating ...

Magnetism is usually taught as a story of straight lines, with field arrows marching neatly from north to south. In a lab at Florida State University, that picture has just been shattered by a new ...

A team of chemists has developed a new type of magnetic molecule that could be the key to storing vast amounts of data on absolutely miniscule drives. How much data are we talking here? "This new ...

Magnets tuned with lasers at room temperature could lead to faster hard drives and a new generation of computer chips.
