Imagine navigating a virtual reality with contact lenses or operating your smartphone underwater: This and more could soon be ...

It looked still to you before because you were moving with it. We have this same problem with electric and magnetic fields. Depending on your reference frame, what appears to be a magnetic force ...

A flower-shaped structure only a few micrometers in size made of a nickel-iron alloy can concentrate and locally enhance ...

Tiny magnetic "flowers" engineered by physicist Anna Palau are redefining how we manipulate magnetic fields. These ...

Back in 1832, the celebrated British physicist, Michael Faraday, carried out a set of experiments designed to answer a tantalizing question: could electricity be generated by Earth's rotation through ...

A wild idea has been proposed to generate electric power from Earth’s rotation with the help of magnetic fields. A new ...

Scientists know well how conventional materials conduct heat. However, things are not as straightforward under extreme ...

A team of researchers has developed a pioneering 3-axis Hall-effect magnetic sensor based on an inverted pyramid structure.

the European High Magnetic Field Lab in Nijmegen, and the University of Warwick. Unlike their carbon analogue graphene, phosphorene nanoribbons possess a tunable electronic structure, making them ...

The ability to conduct heat is one of the most fundamental properties of matter, crucial for engineering applications. Scientists know well how conventional materials, such as metals and insulators, ...

A flower-shaped structure only a few micrometres in size made of a nickel-iron alloy can concentrate and locally enhance magnetic fields. The size of the effect can be controlled by varying the ...
