Terahertz light produces a metastable magnetic state in an antiferromagnet

New phase could be used to make faster and more compact memory and processing devices

New candidate emerges for a universal quantum electrical standard

Approach based on the quantum anomalous Hall effect does away with the need for applied magnetic fields

Two images. The one at left is a close-up of an electronic device similar to the one used in the experiment, showing light orange circuit elements against a grey background. The second image is a photo taken from underneath a dilution refrigerator

Altermagnets imaged at the nanoscale

Study provides insights into the nature of this recently-discovered class of magnetism

Six-colour image with arrows overlayed on each colour showing the direction of the altermagnetic ordering within that region of the MnTe sample. At two points within the sample, all six colours meet, and the arrows indicate the existence of a vortex.

Orbital angular momentum monopoles appear in a chiral crystal

Experimental observations at the Swiss Light Source could advance the development of energy-efficient memory devices based on "orbitronics"

A bright white wave peak passes through spheres of red and blue arrows pointing outward, resembling spiky hedgehogs

Rotating cylinder amplifies electromagnetic fields
