Argonne researchers have shown that they can use light to temporarily alter the crystal symmetry within lead sulfide quantum dots. This process reduces the off-centering of lead atoms and affects the ...

Controlling magnetism in a device is not easy; unusually large magnetic fields or lots of electricity are needed, which are ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) Micrometer-sized, flower-shaped structures made of a nickel-iron alloy can locally enhance magnetic fields by concentrating field lines at their center. The ...

A flower-shaped structure only a few micrometres in size made of a nickel-iron alloy can concentrate and locally enhance magnetic fields. (Nanowerk News) A flower-shaped structure only a few ...
