Discover how a SLAC-led team confirmed altermagnetism, a third magnetic phase, in manganese telluride (MnTe). Learn how ferromagnets align spins in one direction, antiferromagnets cancel them out, and altermagnets combine both traits through a chiral twist in the crystal lattice, and why this stable, spin-carrying material could lead to faster, lower-power computers and data centres.
