Jan 17, 2026 A scalable method creates ultraclean twisted 2D superlattices, enabling high resolution X-ray imaging of backfolded bands linked to exotic quantum effects. (Nanowerk News) Exciting electronic characteristics emerge when scientists stack 2D materials on top of each other and give the top layer a little twist. The twist...
Voltage pulses can flip, create, and erase magnetic bimerons in two-dimensional ferroelectrics
Jan 17, 2026 Flipping ferroelectric polarization reverses bimeron topology in a two-dimensional magnet, allowing voltage pulses alone to write, erase, and invert nanoscale spin structures without current flow. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Magnetic skyrmions captured the imagination of physicists when researchers first observed them in bulk crystals and thin films a little...
