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 ...

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 ...
