Digital data, generated by corporate and individual users, is growing day by day due to a
vast range of digital applications. Magnetic hard disk drives (HDDs) currently fulfill the …

Novel material properties can be realized by designing waves' dispersion relations in
artificial crystals. The crystal's structural length scales may range from nano-(light) up to …

Magnetic skyrmions are topologically stable spin configurations, which usually originate
from chiral interactions known as Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interactions. Skyrmion lattices were …

Magnetic skyrmions are deemed to be the forerunners of novel spintronic memory and logic
devices. While their observation and their current-driven motion at room temperature have …

In metal/oxide heterostructures, rich chemical,, electronic,,, magnetic,,, and mechanical,
properties can emerge from interfacial chemistry and structure. The possibility to dynamically …

The observation of magnetic domains by magneto-optical microscopy, based on the Kerr
and the Faraday effect, is one of the most prominent techniques for the visualization of …

A common misconception is that the irradiation of solids with energetic electrons and ions
has exclusively detrimental effects on the properties of target materials. In addition to the …

In current longitudinal magnetic recording media, high areal density and low noise are
achieved by statistical averaging over several hundred weakly coupled ferromagnetic grains …

Irradiating solids with energetic particles is usually thought to introduce disorder, normally
an undesirable phenomenon. But recent experiments on electron or ion irradiation of …

This review is devoted to both the experimental and theoretical aspects of lateral
confinement effects observed for spin waves, with the wavevector in the 102–10 6cm− 1 …
