Magnetic domains can take on a wide range of structures. In certain soft magnetic materials, they form complex zig-zag patterns known as maze domains. These patterns change in complicated ways as ...
Non-collinear antiferromagnetic materials, which have a net magnetic moment nearly zero, yet exhibit significant anomalous transverse transport properties, are considered as candidate materials for ...
One of the common modes of scanning probe microscopy (SPM) is Magnetic force microscopy (MFM). As indicated by the name, SPM is used to map magnetic properties. On the nanoscale, MFM probes local ...
In MFM, a magnetic-coated AFM probe interacts with magnetic field gradients from the sample, causing detectable forces on the probe's cantilever. To focus on magnetic interactions, MFM is often ...
For the first time, researchers have mapped how the boundaries of magnetic nanostructures behave on extremely short timescales. The work of physicist Johan Mentink of Radboud University shows that ...
