The discovery of graphene has motivated scientists to explore a wide range of layered, atomically-thin 2D materials. One of the most astounding discoveries was that such monoatomic layers could be ...

An international team has detected an unusual ferromagnetic property in a two-dimensional system, known as 'easy-plane anisotropy.' This could foster new energy efficient information technologies ...

Topological magnetoelectric effect (TME), for example, the topological response of magnetization to an electric field in the same direction, is a hallmark phenomenon of axion insulator from the ...

Magnetic topological insulators are an exotic class of materials that conduct electrons without any resistance at all and so are regarded as a promising breakthrough in materials science. Researchers ...

Chromium(III) Telluride (Cr 2 Te 3) is an interesting material for (ferro)magnetic applications, with Yao Wen and colleagues reporting in a 2020 Nano Letters paper that they confirmed it to show ...

At a classical second-order phase transition, condensed matter systems acquire long-range order upon cooling below the transition temperature, and the properties near the transition are driven by ...

Giant magnetoresistance (GMR) is a quantum mechanical effect observed in thin film structures composed of alternating ferromagnetic and non-magnetic layers. It is characterized by a significant change ...

Sergey Kuznetsov and team have created a unique speaker system that is equipped with a ferromagnetic solution that changes shape depending on the audio stream through the speaker. The name of the ...
