Recent advancements in the field of magnetism and photonics have been reported, marking significant progress in technology and research. A new type of magnetism, termed 'altermagnetism,' has been identified, with potential applications in creating high-capacity computer storage and novel magnetic computers, as detailed in a Nature (@nature) research paper. This paper also observed plaid-like spin splitting in a noncoplanar antiferromagnet, further distinguishing altermagnets from conventional antiferromagnets. Additionally, a breakthrough in terahertz technology has been achieved with the development of a new carbon-based tunable metasurface absorber, capable of ultrawide, tunable bandwidth in the THz range, as highlighted in an #APNexus research summary. This advancement could pave the way for faster and smaller optical computers, including the possibility of optical quantum computers, as facilitated by a new optical metamaterial enabling true one-way glass.
Magnetic materials with zero net magnetization fall into two classes: conventional antiferromagnets and altermagnets. Physicists have identified a property in altermagnets that widens the divide between the two groups https://t.co/4qn4RZYPtC
