Highlights

The conceptual image shows how the researchers’ sculpted pattern of tiny hills and valleys – smaller than one millionth of a hair’s thickness – on the substrate (MgO, at the bottom) guides how the atoms in the superconducting material (YBCO, on top) settle. At the interface between the two layers, an electronic landscape allows superconductivity to occur at higher temperatures than previously possible – even when high magnetic fields were are applied.

Illustration of the device concept. A memory chip based on stacked quantum materials. By placing a magnetic layer on top of a topological material, the researchers were able to switch magnetization using very small electrical currents and without applying an external magnetic field.

A research team at Chalmers University of Technology has developed a new diminutive laser technology that makes it possible to create a miniature biosensor with the laser source and optics integrated onto a one-centimetre semiconductor chip. This enables significantly smaller sensors, paving the way for portable optical technology and for moving certain types of medical sampling from hospitals to the patients’ homes.

AMSwitch proposed an altermagnetic chip that harnesses a new class of quantum magnetic materials called altermagnets, distinguished by their alternating and huge spin-split electronic states. The schematics depict the chip alongside a magnet (left) and a band structure (right) revealing a pronounced spin splitting between the up-spin (red) and down-spin (blue) electronic bands.
