At the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore, researchers have discovered that electric current can do something far more profound than simply power a device — it can rewrite a material's magnetic identity entirely. By pushing a complex oxide material across a critical threshold, the team transformed it between fundamentally different magnetic states, each carrying a distinct electrical resistance. Published in Nature Communications, this work by Bhagwati Prasad and Suryakanta Mondal opens a quiet but consequential door toward memory and logic technologies built for the cold, precise world
