CrAs shows stress-tunable orbital-driven magnetism

Original: Highly uniaxial stress-tunable orbital-driven magnetism in CrAs

Physicists report that the compound chromium arsenide (CrAs) exhibits orbital-driven magnetism that is highly tunable under uniaxial stress, according to a new study in an American Physical Society journal. The finding points to magnetic behaviour in CrAs that can be controlled by applying mechanical strain along a single axis, a property of interest for strain-controlled magnetic devices.

Why now: A newly published APS study on stress-controllable magnetism in CrAs is drawing attention from condensed-matter researchers.
