Conventional electronics process information leveraging the electrical charge of electrons. Over the past few decades, some ...

The film discusses the historical development and principles of electrodynamics, starting with Luigi Galvani's chance discovery of electric current through the twitching of a frog's leg. It explains ...

Scientists are now proposing a novel approach to achieve greater memory density while producing less heat: by using an electric field instead of a current to turn magnetism on and off, thereby ...

In a review article published in Reviews of Modern Physics, Fèlix Casanova from the Nanodevices group at CIC nanoGUNE, Prof. Albert Fert, Nobel Prize in Physics, and his colleagues review the state of ...

New evidence suggests a rare triplet superconductor may help quantum computers stay in sync by preserving electron spin ...

Magnetic skyrmions – quasiparticles with a vortex-like structure – show much promise as storage bits for next-generation computer memories and logic devices, but tracking their motion is no easy task.

Albert Fert, French physicist and winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2007, is one of the discoverers of giant magnetoresistance, a physical effect that revolutionised hard disk technology, ...
