For decades, ferromagnetic materials have driven technologies like magnetic hard drives, magnetic random access memories and ...

Electric charge is no longer required to carry information as scientists find a practical way to use spintronics in graphene.

This allowed us to develop spin-orbit torque (SOT) devices featuring synthetic antiferromagnetic (AFM) and ferromagnetic (FM) couplings. Field-free switching with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy was ...

A team of researchers has developed a novel method for using cholesteric liquid crystals in optical microcavities. The ...

Weber et al. (1) consolidated the generalized criteria for the preferable properties of materials hosting defect spin qubits (4, 12): a wide bandgap, small spin-orbit coupling, nuclear spin free ...

A prototype test and experimentation satellite has been launched into orbit, paving the way for new demonstrations of key advanced targeting, missile warning, and ...

Researchers use circularly polarized light to control the direction of exciton polaritons in 2D semiconductors, enabling new tools for nanoscale photonics.

sending it into low Earth orbit. This approach avoids the need for fuel-based propulsion, offering a cleaner, more cost-effective solution to launching satellites into space. The Science Behind the ...

We introduce a state-interaction approach for computing g-matrices within time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) and the Tamm–Dancoff approximation (TDA), applied here for the first time.

The tunnel magneto-resistance (TMR) ratio is investigated for spin-filter magnetic tunnel junctions (S-FMTJs) in the presence of spin–orbit coupling inside the spin-filter (SF) layer. The transmission ...

These phenomena are attributed to accelerated radiative decay rates (kr) due to the pressure-enhanced spin–orbit coupling (SOC) effect, suppressed nonradiative transitions through closer π–π stacking, ...
