Voltage Switches Antiferromagnetic States on Nanosecond Timescales
Physicists at the University of Augsburg together with collaborators from the Budapest University of Technology and Economics and Rutgers University, USA, have successfully switched an antiferromagnetic state in an insulator by voltage pulses, within just a few tens of billionths of a second. Their findings were recently published in Physical Review Letters.
