"Some time ago, we showed that it is possible to induce an inverse phase transition in magnetite," says physicist Fabrizio Carbone at EPFL. "It's as if you took water and you could turn it into ice by putting energy into it with a laser. This is counterintuitive as normally to freeze water you cool it down, i.e. remove energy from it."
Carbone has led a
