RIKEN physicists have discovered for the first time why the magnitude of the electron flow depends on direction in a special kind of magnet. This finding could help to realize future low-energy ...

Researchers at Rice University have found that gently squeezing a crystal of iron sulfide can change two of its unusual ...

Introduction Have you ever wondered how a compass works? Traditional compasses (not the digital kind found in smart phones and other devices) are tools that take advantage of a natural feature of ...

Two different mechanisms are found to be responsible for the direction-dependent flow of electrons in chiral magnets Figure 1: The arrangement of electron spins in a chiral magnet resembles a spiral ...
