Magnets out of multiple materials, or magnetic semiconductors at room temperature?
Wikipedia seems to say it is new, assuming this one has "robust" coexistence of the properties the framing would be important and not just thrown in there to trick people into thinking it was about superconductors:
> To date, GaMnAs remains the only semiconductor material with robust coexistence of ferromagnetism persisting up to rather high Curie temperatures around 100–200 K.
If there is an important combination of material properties that previously was only available at cryogenic temps, a room temp version is significant since you don't need cryogenic cooling to take advantage of it.
