Counting on neodymium: Promising candidate for information processing with magnetic molecules

Tuesday, September 24, 2013 - 08:30 in Physics & Chemistry

Magnetic molecules are regarded as promising functional units for the future of information processing. Scientists have now produce particularly robust magnetic molecules that enable a direct electrical readout of magnetic information. This was made possible by selecting the rare earth metal neodymium as the central building block of the molecule.
