The energy footprint of computing is a major sustainability issue. Pedram Khalili, Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering; Mark Hersam, Walter P. Murphy Professor and Chair of ...

Small battery devices need magnetic switches that use power and take up space. These switches detect magnets and help devices run longer.

Researchers used ultrathin van der Waals materials to create an electron magnet that can be switched at room temperature. This type of magnet could be used to build magnetic processors or memories ...

Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden published their findings in Advanced Materials, demonstrating a material that allows two competing magnetic forces to coexist within a single ...

Imagine a future where computers can learn and make decisions in ways that mimic human thinking, but at a speed and efficiency that are orders of magnitude greater than the current capability of ...

A new device concept opens the door to compact, high-performance transistors with built-in memory. (Nanowerk News) Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon ...

A new research initiative is launching at the DIII-D National Fusion Facility to tackle ...

As AI and IoT drive explosive global data growth, energy-efficient information devices have become critical for sustainability. Kyushu University researchers demonstrate that inserting an atomic-scale ...

This illustration shows electric current being pumped into platinum (the bottom slab), which results in the creation of an electron spin current that switches the magnetic state of the 2D ferromagnet ...

An atomically thin material unites opposing magnetic forces and cuts memory device energy use by tenfold, opening new possibilities in the future of computing. Researchers at Chalmers University of ...
