The all-optical control of magnetization at room temperature expands the potential of spin-based technologies in data storage and quantum computing. Here, the authors use femtosecond optical pulses to manipulate skyrmion states in Fe₃Sn₂ without external magnetic fields, revealing light-induced switching and interconversion processes, with implications for advanced spintronic applications.
