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.

Ultraminiature Magnetometer Rotation & Proximity Sensing from NVE 

Tunneling magnetoresistance analog magnetic sensors are revolutionizing sensing capability for product developers. Two new ultraminiature TMR devices from NVE can sense rotation and proximetry with unprecedented precision. One is a dual-axis sensor for sensitive rotation sensing, the other a proximetry sensor that can detect smaller objects at greater distances with more precision than ever before. They expand NVE’s line of ALT-Series TMR analog magnetometers. […]

NVE Introduces World’s Most Sensitive Magnetometer IC & More Ultra-Miniature Converters

Billed as the world’s most sensitive magnetometer integrated circuit, the new ALT021-10E analog magnetometer from NVE Corporation has a remarkable sensitivity of 0.5 millivolts per volt per microtesla. Based on the company’s tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) technology, the device can precisely measure fields from less than a microtesla to 250 microtesla. […]
