The discovery made by a team of physicists from Scientists from the S N Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences (SNBNCBS), an autonomous institution of the Department of Science and Technology (DST),, reveals that certain quantum magnetic systems can exhibit dual behaviors—where magnetic excitations called magnons can switch between two distinct states under specific conditions, much like light exhibits both wave and particle characteristics.   This duality opens up possibilities for ultra-fast, low-power spintronic devices, where information is carried not by electrons but by the spin states of particles. Such…
