Silicon photonic systems rely increasingly on micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) actuators to provide precise beam ...
An international research team led by the University of Vienna has succeeded in developing a new method to directly measure partial charges in molecules. The results, now published in Nature, provide ...
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 ...
Researchers at Kyoto University have proposed a new physical model that explores how disturbances in the ionosphere may exert electrostatic forces within Earth's crust and potentially contribute to ...
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 ...
Kelvin probe force microscopy (abbreviated as KPFM, KFM or SKFM) is a technique predicated on atomic force microscopy (AFM): used to examine the electronic properties of nanoscale materials and ...
The Saarland researchers reveal that the slipperiness of ice is driven by electrostatic forces, not melting. Water molecules in ice are arranged in a rigid crystal lattice. Each molecule has a ...
