A new way to generate very low-resistance electric current in a new class of materials has been discovered by scientists. The discovery, which relies on the separation of right- and left-"handed" ...

Quantum metals are metals where quantum effects—behaviors that normally only matter at atomic scales—become powerful enough ...

MIT researchers have now replaced silicon with a magnetic semiconductor, creating a magnetic transistor that could enable ...

WASHINGTON, D.C., July 10, 2018 -- The emerging field of spintronics leverages electron spin and magnetization. This could enhance the storage capacity of computer hard drives and potentially play an ...

Using the Hall effect for current measurement is inherently robust, but it can be an even more versatile tool when it comes to position sensing. Sensing, in all its forms, is fundamental to so many ...
