University of Maryland researchers have discovered a way to control magnetic properties of graphene that could lead to powerful new applications in magnetic storage and magnetic random access memory.
The finding by a team of Maryland researchers, led by Physics Professor Michael S. Fuhrer of the UMD Center for Nanophysics and Advanced Materials is the latest of many amazing properties discovered for graphene.
The article Superconductivity at 23 K in Pt doped BaFe2As2 single crystals, by researchers at the UMD Physics, was selected as part of IoP Science's Highlights of 2010. Originally published in Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, the article was selected for receiving some of the highest praise from referees and for its high number of downloads.
This research is supported by Maryland's AFOSR-MURI grant, involving Richard Green, Johnpierre Paglione and Ichiro Takeuchi.
The Atlantic has posted recent images of Antarctica, its environment, and some of the scientific work taking place there -- including images of the IceCube Neutrino Observatory, which several of our researchers are directly involved with.
