The ability to control the direction in which a signal travels – without external switching, without added circuitry – is a longstanding goal in the design of compact magnetic devices.

Physicists in the US and Taiwan have performed new experiments that verify long-standing theoretical predictions of how long-range magnetic order can emerge in atomically thin materials.

When the Apollo astronauts returned from the Moon, they brought a puzzle back with them.

Researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico, US have used visible light to both image and manipulate the domains of a chiral antiferromagnet (AFM).

Researchers in Switzerland have found an unexpected new use for an optical technique commonly used in silicon chip manufacturing.
