A recent breakthrough in spintronics research could lead to faster and more efficient optically-controlled MRAM devices

Researchers from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in Israel have made a recent discovery that could change the face of spintronics research - the most important equation used to describe magnetization dynamics, namely the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation, also applies to the optical domain.

The new discovery has relevant applications in optical magnetic recording, namely in optically-controlled MRAM technology. Manipulation of the magnetization order parameter on optical timescales is key for ultrafast spintronics, which allows for faster, energy-efficient optically-controlled MRAM technology.
