Superconductivity—the ability of a material to conduct electricity without any energy loss to heat—enables highly efficient, ...

The use of highly metallic materials relates to metal sandwich complexes, referred to as ‘metallocenes’. These complexes can be incorporated into polymeric materials (Polymers, or plastics, which ...

The discovery of new quantum materials with magnetic properties are believed to pave the way for ultra-fast and considerably more energy efficient computers and mobile devices. So far, these types of ...

Researchers found friction can occur without contact, driven by magnetic dynamics, and does not always increase with load. The effect could enable controllable, wear-free technologies.

Florida State University researchers have created a new crystalline material with unusual magnetic patterns that could be used for breakthroughs in data storage and quantum technologies. In a study ...

Molecule-based magnets like vanadium tetracyanoethylene are extremely sensitive to air, impeding their use in practical quantum devices. Researchers coated vanadium tetracyanoethylene with an ...

For the first time, scientists have imaged an entirely new form of magnetism called altermagnetism. The researchers used cutting-edge x-ray techniques to visualize and fine-tune this novel magnetic ...

Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden published their findings in Advanced Materials, demonstrating a material that allows two competing magnetic forces to coexist within a single ...

Magnetars are some of the most extreme objects we know about, with magnetic fields so strong that chemistry becomes impossible in their vicinity. They’re neutron stars with a superfluid interior that ...
