Researchers Create Room-Temperature Multiferroics

Multiferroics or materials that posses both electric and magnetic order are the main areas of focus for futuristic computing. However, as the conditions conducive for these two states are mutually exclusive, these multiferroics are hard to create. Most of the multiferroics known currently only exhibit their properties at very low temperatures.
