A novel technique allows scientists to examine magnetic nanostructures with enhanced resolution. This approach was created by researchers at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) in collaboration with the Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics in Halle. The innovative method achieves a resolution of approximately 70 nanometres, in contrast to conventional light microscopes, which only achieve a resolution of 500 nanometres. This advancement is significant for the advancement of new, energy-efficient storage technologies rooted in spin electronics.
