Modern low-power solutions to computer memory rely heavily on the manipulation of the magnetic properties of materials.

According to Weijia Kuang, a geophysicist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Centre, this correlation could help us to know the evolution of life and how it is relevant to the interior process of the ...

A method is presented for controlling the field-directed self-assembly of colloidal magnetic core–shell nanoparticles into three-dimensional (3D) crystalline superstructures with nanoscale feature ...

Every breath we take in contains 21% oxygen, the gas that makes life on Earth possible. Oxygen, in its combined oxide state, has always been abundant in Earth's crust, but elemental diatomic ...

Giant magnetoelectric (ME) effects have been investigated recently in composites of magnetostrictive and piezoelectric materials. The usage of highly strictive piezoelectric and magnetostrictive ...

Despite decades of multiferroic research, orbital-order-driven ferroelectricity remains exceptionally rare. Here, we demonstrate spontaneous out-of-plane ferroelectric polarization in monolayer ...

We present a general computation taking into account the slotting effect on the no-load magnetic field distribution in multipole surface mounted permanent-magnet motors (SMPMM). A new analytical ...

What Will Happen When the Earth’s Magnetic Field Begins to Reverse? On the University of Maryland campus, a giant whirligig tries to predict the planet’s next big flip Haley Edwards May 2014 ...

The universe is soaked in weak-but-persistent magnetic fields. Despite decades of research, astronomers still aren't exactly sure where these magnetic fields came from.
