A new study reveals how intertwined forms of frustration in quantum materials can give rise to unconventional magnetic states.

Research in the lab of UC Santa Barbara materials professor Stephen Wilson is focused on understanding the fundamental physics behind unusual states of matter and developing materials that can host ...

The kinematical theory of elementary particles developed by the author predicts that, contrary to the usual assumption, spin and magnetic moment of electrons and positrons might be parallel vectors.

Charge-neutral 180 degrees domain walls that separate domains of antiparallel polarization directions are common structural topological defects in ferroelectrics. In normal ferroelectrics, charged 180 ...

When cells divide, the mitotic spindle segregates the genetic material. Correct bipolar spindle assembly depends on mitotic motors with distinct properties. How motors collectively organize ...

Altermagnetism, a newly imaged class of magnetism, offers potential for the development of faster and more efficient magnetic memory devices, increasing operation speeds by up to a thousand times.

Altermagnetism is a distinct form of magnetic order where the tiny constituent magnetic building blocks align antiparallel to their neighbors, but the structure hosting each one is rotated compared to ...

Professor Peter Wadley, who led the research, explains: "Altermagnets consist of magnetic moments that point antiparallel to their neighbours. However, each part of the crystal hosting these tiny ...

Abstract: SiC power MOSFETs guarantee high power density and high efficiency in new-generation power converters. The precise measurement of the device’s junction temperature is important in this ...
