The researchers found that electrons within the material became oriented in the same direction when illuminated by photons from a laser.&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n Click here for original story, <a href=\"https:\/\/phys.org\/news\/2022-04-lasers-trigger-magnetism-atomically-thin.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Lasers trigger magnetism in atomically thin quantum materials<\/a>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: Phys.org&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Researchers have discovered that light\u2014in the form of a laser\u2014can trigger a form of magnetism in a normally nonmagnetic material.
