Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory are investigating the possibility that tiny magnetic whirlpools called “skyrmions,” which are magnetic vortices as tiny as billionths of a meter, could transform memory storage in future high performance computers. Skyrmions, the Argonne researchers say, show characteristics that could overcome the shortcomings of microscopic […]
