A clearer look at critical materials, thanks to refrigerator magnets
With an advanced technology known as angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), scientists are able to map out a material's electron energy-momentum relationship, which encodes the material's electrical, optical, magnetic and thermal properties like an electronic DNA. But the technology has its limitations; it doesn't work well under a magnetic field. This is a major drawback for scientists who want to study materials that are deployed under or even actuated by magnetic fields.
