Shape affects magnetization reversal

  • News
  • Research
Magnetic objects of the same composition but with different geometries demonstrate different magnetization reversal behavior. Researchers at INAC have discovered that the shape and direction of the wires (in systems made of aluminum oxide and cobalt wires and platinum) determined the spatial distribution of spin-orbit coupling in the object, and therefore the angular momentum required […] >>
