Article Synopsis
- The text discusses the challenges in current data storage technology, specifically the need for materials that enable higher density, faster access times, and lower power consumption.
- It highlights the use of vertically aligned nanocomposites (VANs) made from ferromagnetic LaSrMnO (LSMO) nanopillars in a ZnO matrix, which allows for controllable magnetic anisotropy.
- The research finds that these VAN films align the magnetic easy axis out-of-plane and provide significant advantages in remnant magnetization and bit density, suggesting their potential in improving data storage technologies.
Reducing the thermal conductivity of thermoelectric materials has been a field of intense research to improve the efficiency of thermoelectric devices. One approach is to create a nanostructured thermoelectric material that has a low thermal conductivity due to its high number of grain boundaries or voids, which scatter phonons. Here, we present a new method based on spark ablation nanoparticle generation to create nanostructured thermoelectric materials, demonstrated using BiTe.
