Summary:A nanoswitch device comprising: at least one stationary element (52) and at least one element (50) which is at least partially made of a magnetic material and which is movable with respect to the stationary element, means of activating the movable element, comprising: and at least one first and one second magnetic means (30, 30', 40, 40') each having a planar shape, defining a first and a second plane, in order to generate remanent magnetization in a direction contained within said first plane or perpendicular to this first plane, means (36, 36') for reversing the direction of the remanent magnetization of at least one of said first and second magnetic means.
