Faster and more efficient information transfer | EurekAlert! Science News
E-Mail IMAGE: An electrical current excites the superposition of two magnons with linear polarization (indicated by the red and blue arrows). Subsequently, energy is transported through the antiferromagnetic insulator. This can be... view more Credit: Ill./©: Andrew Ross, JGU Be it with smartphones, laptops, or mainframes: The transmission, processing, and storage of information is currently based on a single class of material - as it was in the early days of computer science about 60 years ago. A new class of magnetic materials, however, could raise information technology to a n...
