Novel layout of a bi-metallic nanoring for magnetic field pulse generation from light

Recently Tsiatmas et al proposed using a nanoring made of two different metallic sectors to generate a magnetic pulse from a laser pulse [ 1 ]. Non-uniform heating of the ring creates very large temperature gradients, which drive thermoelectric currents, and this creates a localized magnetic field....
