**This Strange New Magnet Could Transform Future Electronics**

By Tom Dinki, University at Buffalo - Published on 01 July 2026

Researchers have designed a diamond-based quantum sensor that could help detect altermagnets, a newly discovered type of magnetic material with unusual properties. For almost 100 years, scientists recognized only two fundamental types of magnets. Now, a much newer class called altermagnets is emerging as one of the most exciting discoveries in physics, with the potential [...]
