The Future Is Made of Magnets

Every once in a while, markets serve up a paradox so big it makes your head spin. That’s what’s happening right now with rare earth stocks — the most essential raw-material plays in the entire AI ...
Researchers have for the first time managed to use electricity to switch on magnetism in a material that’s normally non-magnetic. This could be a step towards making electronic components out of ...
MP Materials has soared 250% on the year. Can this mining company match -- or, indeed, exceed -- the performance of tech ...
Under the terms of this supply agreement, Solvay will supply Neodymium-Praseodymium (NdPr), Dysprosium (Dy) and Terbium (Tb) oxides to Noveon. These oxides will be extracted, among other sources, from ...
Small in-plane magnetic fields switch skyrmion chirality and improve lattice order in a two-dimensional magnet, pointing to ...
China is developing a new export system for rare-earth magnets and other sensitive materials, according to The Wall Street Journal and Reuters. The plan would reportedly fast-track shipments for ...
In a breakthrough that could open up exciting new possibilities in computing and electronics, scientists in the US have developed a two-dimensional magnetic material that is the thinnest in the world.
