Description:
Article The use of antiferromagnetic materials in spintronic devices has been proposed as an attractive alternative to ferromagnets, but only a few suitable materials are known. Here, the authors synthesize a new antiferromagnet (AFM)—tetragonal epitaxial CuMnAs—and show that it is ideal for spintronic applications. Nature Communications doi: 10.1038/ncomms3322 Authors: P.
