Develop a new hybrid material at the nanoscale

A research team with participation of the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC) has developed a new material composed of iron atoms and organic molecules. Such materials, called hybrids, could be used in the computer industry for the manufacture of hard drives, RAM and sensors computer faster and more efficient. The research is published in Nature Materials.

"The growing need for electronic devices and magnetic tail has driven the development of new artificial materials whose properties can be measured to sub-nanometer scale," explains Peter Gambardella of CIN2, the Research Center for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology ( joint center of the CSIC and the Catalan Institute of Nanotechnology in Barcelona). In the last twenty years have been great advances in the study of the behavior of layers of magnetic metal nano-scale for the development of magnetic sensors and memories.
