Atomic scale copper rich layers inside rare earth magnets suppress demagnetization, improving strength, stability, and efficiency in motors and generators. (Nanowerk News) Rare-earth magnets are ...

A surprising breakthrough in physics could reshape the future of computing by tapping into a strange, previously untapped ...

Artist impression, based on actual measurement data, of the nuclear spin of an atom flipping between distinct quantum states. The flipping was observed as a fluctuation in the electrical current ...

Scientists at Argonne National Laboratory are advancing next-generation electronics by unlocking the behavior of ...

For years, scientists have been trying to replicate the concept of nuclear fusion — the phenomenon that keeps the Sun and other stars alive — and turn it into a working reactor on Earth that can ...

In 1845, Michael Faraday discovered what’s known today as the Faraday Effect—which describes how light and electromagnetism are related. A new study revealed that the magnetic component of light ...

The development of scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) in high magnetic fields has opened new avenues in nanoscale imaging and spectroscopy. By utilising quantum tunnelling in precisely engineered ...

Small clouds of strontium atoms (blue) and rubidium atoms (red) are trapped together. The well-known properties of rubidium can be used to calibrate the applied magnetic field very precisely, which in ...
