First direct nanomagnet measurement finds switching attempts far slower than long-assumed

A compass always points north—or does it? Magnets normally maintain a stable direction of magnetization, pointing from south ...

Scientists Decode Mysterious Magnetic “Maze Domains” To Boost EV Efficiency

Magnetic domains can take on a wide range of structures. In certain soft magnetic materials, they form complex zig-zag ...

First actual measurement of 'attempt time' in nanomagnets after 70 years of assumptions

For 70 years, we have assumed that 'attempt time' in nanomagnets is one nanosecond. For the first time ever, this value was ...
