Magnetic nanorings have unique closed-flux vortex states that exhibit no stray field. The chirality of the vortex can be used to represent a "1" or a "0" in magnetic bits for data storage purposes. Atomic Force Microscopy ...

Nanoscale devices are promising for the next generation of electronics, providing possibilities for greater hard drive storage capacity and higher computer execution speed. There are many strategies to produce such devices, ...

Biofilms are matrix-enclosed microbial communities that grow at interfaces. They are highly robust and exhibit significant phenotypic changes that render them resistant to many antibacterial agents that can kill their ...
