Exploring the Limits of Antiferromagnetism in a Nanostructured Material

Researchers in the Electronic + Magnetic Materials + Devices Group (Argonne National Laboratory) and at Politecnico di Milano in Italy explored the limits of antiferromagnetism in a nanostructured material for the first time, measuring the temperature required to support antiferromagnetic order in atomic monolayers of manganese on tungsten as the dimensions of the structures are reduced.

NIST Scientists Discover Large-Scale Cousin of Elusive 'Magnetic Monopoles'

Any child can tell you that a magnet has a "north" and a "south" pole, and that if you break it into two pieces, you invariably get two smaller magnets with two poles of their own. But scientists have spent the better part of the last eight decades trying to find, in essence, a magnet with only one pole.
