There’s a second form of magnetism?

For anyone interested in what they could be used for, but without time to read the article,

On a nano level, everything we store inside our devices is the result of the coordinated action of electrons. If these materials could be improved, it could mean higher efficiency, more storage within the same size of material, and less loss when data is accessed.

Because

…in [this] paper, scientists show that they can tune these materials very precicely in order to create specific directions of magnetism.

While the traditional ferromagnets we use today are fine in many ways, they aren’t ideal, and can introduce a blurring between separated bits of data known as crosstalk.

Everyone in this thread:

Mesmer was right all along

Uh, don’t we already have three? Dia-, ferro- and paramagnetism?

Sounds great, a new type of bullshit for me to try to remember how it works every few years.

shout out to d-wave electron systems gotta be one of my favorite genders fr

Real question:

This article has been SPAMMED over Lemmy for the past week, what made you post it 8 days after it was made?

That’s essentially old news on a platform that moves as fast as this

Magnets are the solution, just you wait
