RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
Magnetism Does the Twist at Oak Ridge National Laboratory
skyrmions, they twist and swirl, forming unique shapes like petite porcupines or tiny tornadoes. The tiny intertwined magnetic
structures could innovate high-density data storage, for which
size does matter and must be small. The Oak Ridge National
Laboratory-led project produced skyrmions as small as 10
nanometers - 10,000 times thinner than a human hair.
" The way we design and synthesize the superlattice creates the
atomic-scale magnetic interactions responsible for twisting the
spins, " said physicist Elizabeth Skoropata, who co-led the study
with John Nichols, both formerly of ORNL. Results of the project
were published in the July issue of Science Advances.
ORNL's Ho Nyung Lee added, " Our finding demonstrates how
to precisely engineer interfaces in oxide quantum heterostructures to create nanometer-sized skyrmions. "
Scientists have discovered a strategy for layering dissimilar
crystals with atomic precision to control the size of resulting
magnetic quasi-particles called skyrmions. The approach could
advance high-density data storage and quantum magnets for
quantum information science.
Blog Contributors Needed
Magnetics Business & Technology is looking for knowledgeable professionals in the magnetics industry who'd
like to contribute to our guest blog to be featured on the
website. Your blog will be featured in the month it's published on the website.
The depiction above, by Adam Malin of ORNL, illustrates how
the layering of crystals into a superlattice yields a nanoscale
magnetic structure of twisting, swirling spin orientations, shown
from red to blue, that deflect electrons, shown as white dots.
