Rise of the Underdog: A Neglected Mechanism in Antiferromagnets May be Key to Spintronics
Scientists at Tokyo Institute of Technology (Tokyo Tech) discover a mechanism in antiferromagnets that could be useful for spintronic devices. They theoretically and experimentally demonstrate that one of the magnetization torques arising from optically driven excitations has a much stronger influence on spin orientation than previously given credit for. These findings could provide a new and highly efficient mechanism for manipulating spin.
