In the same way that an object has 'gravitational' potential energy when you hold it above the ground, a charged object can have 'electric' potential energy when it's held in an electric field.

We'll talk about three big ideas: electric potential difference (voltage), electric current, and electric field. Yes, they are all related, and I will show you how with some water and an LED.

The discovery of electric-field-induced magnetization reversal perpendicular to the electric field in multiferroic materials could revolutionize memory design, enabling more space- and energy ...

Electric fields catalyse graphene’s energy and computing prospects Researchers at the National Graphene Institute have made a groundbreaking discovery that could revolutionise energy harnessing and ...

NASA scientists have discovered a third global energy field around Earth. Known as the ambipolar electric field, this force drives charged particles into space above the poles.

Transistors work by controlling electric current using an electric field, which requires semiconductors. Unlike metals, semiconductors have fewer free electrons and an energy band gap that makes ...

A new vortex electric field with the potential to enhance future electronic, magnetic and optical devices has been observed by researchers.

Scientists detected Earth's ambipolar electric field, confirming that it shapes the atmosphere. This key discovery impacts our understanding of space weather.

Separations of electric poles in tetragonal barium titanate during transition from up to down polarization in the presence of an electric field.
