Physicists at UC Santa Barbara have uncovered a new way to manipulate unusual magnetic states by exploiting “frustration” ...

Researchers at Okayama University used high-resolution synchrotron X-ray diffraction to detect tiny lattice distortions (about 100 parts per million) emerging as the topological superconductor Cu x ...

To study the interactions between electrons in a material, physicists have come up with a number of tricks over the years. These interactions are interesting, amongst other things, because they lead ...

Physicists show that magnetoelastic coupling, present in nearly all magnets, can generate skyrmion arrays without crystal ...

Most materials, especially metals and ceramics, are crystals. Their atoms are arranged in three-dimensional lattices that repeat the same exact pattern, over and over again. But there's a well-known ...
