Sentences with phrase «of nanomagnets»

Spin transfer torque is the transfer of the spin angular momentum from conduction electrons to the magnetization of a ferromagnet and enables the manipulation of nanomagnets with spin currents rather than magnetic fields,» explained Gyung - Min Choi, who recently completed his PhD in materials science and engineering at Illinois.

STACKS of nanomagnets could make future supercomputers run leaner.

The team made a logic gate, one of the essential building blocks of a computer, from stacked arrays of nanomagnets.

The islands were lithographically printed onto a substrate, arranged in a square - lattice pattern, with the north and south poles of each nanomagnet meeting and interacting at their four - pronged vertices.

Los Alamos National Laboratory staff scientist Cristiano Nisoli explained, «The emergence of magnetic monopoles in spin ice systems is a particular case of what physicists call fractionalization, or deconfinement of quasi-particles that together are seen as comprising the fundamental unit of the system, in this case the north and south poles of a nanomagnet.

Skyrmions, for example, are a kind of nanomagnet, composed of a spin - correlated ensemble of electrons acting as a topological magnet on certain microscopic surfaces.

Not exact matches

As the material cools, the nanomagnets are ordered according to the interactions of their poles at the vertices.

Other possible applications, all of which require further investigation, include high permeability polymers, nanomagnets for medical diagnostics applications, materials for the 3D printing of metal articles, and silicon - based materials for thermoelectric and solar power components.

The precise properties, like spin orientation, of such nanomagnets can store information.
