Nobel Prize winners' research articles freely available from IOP
IOP Publishing has made selected articles from this year's Nobel Prize winners in chemistry and physics available at no charge on the web. More details are below.
From the IOP website:

The 2007 Nobel Prize for Physics has been awarded to both Albert Fert (Université Paris-Sud, Orsay, France) and Peter Grünberg (Forschungszentrum Jülich, Germany) for their independent work on Giant Magnetoresistance (GMR). The work carried out by Fert and Grünberg has revolutionised and influenced the path for modern technology, making storage devices such as MP3 players and laptops become smaller in weight and appearance yet larger in storage capacity each year.
The 2007 Nobel Prize for Chemistry has been awarded to Gerhard Ertl (Fritz-Haber-Institut der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft Berlin, Germany) for his experimental investigations into the various effects of reactions taking place on surfaces.
Fert, Grunberg and Ertl have all published work within a range of IOP journals including Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter and Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics as well as in the partner journals: Europhysics Letters (EPL) and New Journal of Physics. As a service to the community, we are pleased to make the papers relevant to their prize freely available until the end of 2007:
