Spintronics at BESSY II: Real-time Analysis of Magnetic Bilayer Systems

May 26, 2026 Editorial Staff Comments Off on Spintronics at BESSY II: Real-time Analysis of Magnetic Bilayer Systems

Spintronic devices enable data processing with significantly lower energy consumption. They are based on the interaction between ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic layers. Now, a team from Freie Universität Berlin, HZB and Uppsala University has succeeded in tracking, for each layer separately, how the magnetic order changes after a short laser pulse has excited the system.
