INTERMAG is a leading international conference in the field of magnetism, covering both fundamental and applied research, and attracted more than 1,800 participants this year. The award recognises and encourages excellence in graduate research within the magnetics community.<\/p>\n

Mr. Chang Xu\u2019s research focuses on magnons (tiny waves of magnetism) in antiferromagnetic materials, where opposing magnetic moments cancel each other out. In such materials, magnons can exist in two distinct \u201chanded\u201d forms, analogous to left- and right-handed modes, each carrying spin in opposite directions.<\/p>\n

His work demonstrates how these two types of magnetic waves can be independently controlled and utilised. This capability opens up new possibilities for faster and more energy-efficient technologies, particularly in the development of next-generation computing and spintronic devices.<\/p>\n

This achievement highlights the strength of research in advanced magnetics and spintronics at NUS ECE, as well as the impact of graduate-led innovation on the global stage.<\/p>\n
