Recently, a study on spin-orbit torque switching in the magnetic topological material MnSb₂Te₄ was published in National Science Review (NSR). The research has pioneered new pathways for applying ...

Fig.1: Schematic illustration of the experimental approach. The magnetic heterostructure is first excited by a femtosecond infrared laser pulse (2.1µm wavelength), initiating the process of ...

The field of ultrafast magnetism explores how flashes of light can manipulate a material's magnetization in trillionths of a second. In the process called all-optical switching (AOS), a single laser ...

Researchers from Max Born Institute have demonstrated a successful way to control and manipulate nanoscale magnetic bits—the building blocks of digital data—using an ultrafast laser pulse and ...

Scientists successfully observed 'orbital pumping', a new phenomenon in which orbital currents are generated from the precession of magnetization in magnetic materials. The discovery could provide the ...

Scientists have discovered that electron spin loss, long considered waste, can instead drive magnetization switching in spintronic devices, boosting efficiency by up to three times. The scalable, ...

Researchers have demonstrated a successful way to control and manipulate nanoscale magnetic bits using an ultrafast laser pulse and plasmonic gold nanostructures. (Nanowerk News) All-optical, helicity ...
