The November 2018 issue of Materials Research Bulletin journal will feature five articles written by distinguished researchers, organized by Professor Gregory Carman and Professor Nian Sun. The articles discuss the control of magnetism and are designed to encourage more research on magnetoelectrics, highlighting the potential of this research to impact society by efficiently controlling magnetism in the small scale.
The lead article, entitled Turning Science Fiction into Reality Using Strain Mediated Magnetoelectrics, describes the motivation for focusing on this important area of research by providing background information, research opportunities and application descriptions in this arena. The article also highlights the scientific push the TANMS center has been making since its inception in 2012.
