Nearly every electric motor in modern life, from the fan on your desk to the motor in an electric vehicle, relies on ...

Researchers have discovered that ferroelectric fluids can harness an overlooked transverse electrostatic force (TEF) to rise over 80 mm, without magnets or high voltages. By exploiting the fluid’s ...

Containerless material processing using aerodynamic 1,2, acoustic 3,4, electromagnetic 5,6,7 and electrostatic levitation 8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22 ...

Researchers from the University of Bayreuth have discovered the mechanism by which collagen, the most common protein in the human body, successfully assembles itself. They identified electrostatic ...

Piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM) is an effective method for examining ferroelectric materials due to its nanometer-level resolution and high sensitivity, inherited from atomic force microscopy ...

Two particles carrying electrical charge with the same sign should not attract each other, but in recent years, researchers have found that they can do this when they are dispersed in a liquid. A team ...

Ferroelectric fluids use a strong transverse electrostatic force to climb 80 mm, enabling lightweight, low-voltage motors and compact energy-efficient actuators. (Nanowerk News) Researchers have ...
