Crystal spacing predicts magnetic states in complex alloys better than electron count
Researchers have found a new way to predict the magnetic properties of complex alloys, using crystal spacing instead of electron count. This method is more accurate for certain types of materials than previously used methods. The findings could help scientists design new materials with specific magnetic properties.
Why it's good news: It gives scientists a more reliable tool for creating new materials with unique magnetic properties.
