Researchers at the University of New Hampshire have harnessed artificial intelligence to accelerate the discovery of new ...

Robots aren't always the most delicate of machines when handling fragile objects. They don't have the lightness of touch of ...

A team of scientists developed a new machine learning model for discovering critical-element-free permanent magnet materials based on the predicted Curie temperature of new material combinations. A ...

As someone who studies materials, Lu Li knows people want to hear about the exciting new applications and technologies his discoveries could enable. Sometimes, though, what he finds is just too weird ...

For over a century, scientists have known that electric currents bend in a magnetic field—a phenomenon known as the Hall effect. In magnetic materials like iron, this effect is strong and well ...

Placing materials under extremely strong magnetic fields can give rise to unusual and fascinating physical phenomena or ...

Niron Magnetics aims to use cheap, widely available materials to make magnets for EVs and wind turbines. The motor in your vacuum cleaner and the one in your electric vehicle likely have at least one ...

Magnetism is a property of matter that has been known to mankind for several thousand years, long before these properties could be described in a theory. In our everyday lives, we are used to ...

Writing in Polymers, researchers from Mexico and Ecuador have provided a comparative review of advances in magnetic polymer nanocomposite research and the application of these innovative materials in ...

Controlling magnetic states in materials typically requires continuous power or only works in rare, specialized systems. Researchers developed a general theory showing how electric fields can ...

If you wanted to 3D print an object that was magnetic in some areas only, you'd typically have to print two separate items out of different metals, then join them together. A new take on an existing ...

A new 3D printing technique can create paper-thin "magnetic muscles," which can be applied to origami structures to make them move. Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest sci-tech news updates. By ...
