Electro-permanent magnets (EPMs) are pretty nifty concepts, and if you aren’t familiar with them, they are permanent magnets with the ability to be electrically switched on or off. Unlike an ...

A research team has successfully developed a new approach to create switchable magnetic materials by using hydrogen bonding at the molecular level. This groundbreaking study shows how certain metal ...

Controlling magnetic states in materials typically requires continuous power or only works in rare, specialized systems. Researchers developed a general theory showing how electric fields can ...

The binary nature of single-molecule magnets—metal coordination complexes with switchable magnetic polarity—makes them good candidates for designing new technologies like miniaturized memory storage ...

A chip-sized device that can switch between two topologically protected light structures opens up a route to wireless ...
