Three-dimensional magnetic vortices have been discovered by scientists from the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf in Germany together with colleagues from the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland ...

Materials that can maintain a magnetized state by themselves without an external magnetic field (i.e., permanent magnets) are called ferromagnets. Ferroelectrics can be thought of as the electric ...

Magnets often harbor hidden beauty. Take a simple fridge magnet: Somewhat counterintuitively, it is 'sticky' on one side but not the other. The secret lies in the way the magnetisation is arranged in ...

“Skyrmions,” in which electron spins inside a magnet are arranged like vortices, are a key structure in next-generation spintronics technology. KAIST researchers have shown that skyrmions can form ...

In this analogy, a vortex at the center of a water tank replaces the solenoid that creates a magnetic field in the quantum ...
