Sustainable Alternatives for Next-Generation Magnetic Technologies
January 5th, 2026
Led by graduate student Willie Beeson, Professors Kai Liu and Gen Yin’s team in the Physics Department at Georgetown University have discovered a new class of strong magnets based on high entropy borides using earth-abundant transition metals and boron. These materials offer a compelling new strategy for sustainable magnet design without using rare-earths or precious metals. Their results are just published in the journal Advanced Materials.…
Magneto-Ionic Physical Reservoir Computing
January 5th, 2026
Recent progress in magneto-ionics offers exciting potential to leverage its energy efficiency for implementing physical reservoir computing (PRC). Led by postdoctoral fellow Dhritiman Bhattacharya, Prof. Kai Liu’s group have experimentally demonstrated the classification of temporal data using a perpendicularly magnetized magneto-ionic (MI) heterostructure. Their results are recently published in Nano Letters, in collaboration with Prof. Jayasimha Atulasimha’s group at the Virginial Commonwealth University.…
