Recent work on new room temperature multiferroics

October 4, 2016 By John Heron

Recent work on new room temperature multiferroics is highlighted by Nature and the University of Michigan!

Our collaborative work with UC Berkeley and Cornell University was recently highlighted in Nature: News and Views by Manfred Fiebig and by the University of Michigan! The highlights are in regards to the work recently published in Nature (“Atomically engineered ferroic layers yield a room-temperature magnetoelectric multiferroic”).

Fiebig’s article is titled, “Condensed-matter physics: Multitasking materials from atomic templates”.

The article written by the University of Michigan is titled, “ ‘Atomic sandwiches’ could make computers 100x greener”.
