Twisting the Magnetic Dance: Advancements in Nano-Magnetism Propel Semiconductor Industry
Forty years ago, no one would have believed that the device in the palm of your hand could be a computer. This marvel was made possible through the relentless research and development of miniaturised, high-efficiency electronic components. The nanoscale magnetic structure of magnetic skyrmions is considered by scientists to be a highly promising new generation of data carriers. The research team led by Dr. Wang Duo from the Faculty of Applied Sciences proposes a mechanism for generating polar skyrmions through in-depth studies of the complex behaviours of magnetic skyrmions. Their research has been published in the prestigious international journal npj 2D Materials and Applications, part of the Nature series. This work provides new insights and foundations for semiconductor material research, potentially breaking the physical limits of semiconductor technology and leading to further evolution in both the size and performance of electronic devices.
