Researchers at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory in Tallahassee, Florida, have pushed a palm-sized superconducting coil to 42 tesla, placing a device small enough to hold in one hand within ...
Researchers at ETH Zürich have built the most powerful miniature superconducting magnets ever demonstrated, ...
At temperatures approaching absolute zero, most magnetic materials settle into tidy patterns. Their tiny magnetic moments, or spins, align in one of two ways: all pointing in the same direction in ...
At the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory in Florida, scientists operate the world’s strongest continuous magnet, capable of generating an enormous 45-tesla magnetic field. That is nearly a ...
In most conventional semiconductors, thermal conductivity decreases as temperature rises because heat-carrying lattice vibrations—called phonons—scatter more frequently.
