26.01.2018 – Our prediction of Neel Spin-Orbit torques in Mn2Au realized experimentally
The Kläui group in collaboration with the Sinova group demonstrate technologically feasible read-out and writing of digital information in antiferromagnets / Basic principle for ultrafast and stable magnetic memory. This was achieved by our prediction of Neel Spin-Orbit Torques three years ago. You can see the press release here.
