Physicists have created a new and long-lasting magnetic state in a material, using only light. The results provide a new way to control and switch antiferromagnetic materials, which are of interest ...
Using carefully tuned terahertz light, the MIT team was able to controllably switch an antiferromagnet to a new magnetic state. Over repeated experiments, the team observed that a terahertz pulse ...
A nuclear fusion experiment at the University of Wisconsin-Madison has set a record for the strongest steady magnetic field confining a plasma, ushering in new hope that forthcoming demonstration ...
“Generally, such antiferromagnetic materials are not easy to control,” Nuh Gedik says, pictured in between Tianchuang Luo, left, and Alexander von Hoegen. Additional MIT co-authors include Batyr Ilyas ...

Physicists magnetize a material with light: Terahertz technique could improve memory chip design
MIT physicists have created a new and long-lasting magnetic state in a material, using only light. In a study that appears in Nature, the researchers report using a terahertz laser—a light source that ...
