Recently, the research team led by Prof. XU Guosheng from Institute of Plasma Physics, Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS), Chinese Academy of Sciences demonstrated a novel "two-step" magnet ...

The magnet is the characteristic substance that draws in the ferromagnetic material like iron or nickel by the force of attraction. Individuals depend on magnets for industrial and commercial use.

Rare-earth magnets are essential for electric motors in vehicles, drones, and trains, forming the backbone of modern, environmentally friendly mobility. These are not simple blocks of metal, but ...

The Nano Materials Research Division at the Korea Institute of Materials Science (KIMS), led by Dr. Tae-Hoon Kim and Dr. Jung-Goo Lee, has successfully developed a groundbreaking grain boundary ...

designed to be nearly a drop-in replacement of the old EPM v3. Just like its predecessor, the EPM 4 is a solid-state, zero-maintenance electropermanent magnet with no moving parts in its construction.

Damping vibrations is crucial for precision experiments, for example in astronomy. A new invention uses a special kind of magnets to achieve this -- electropermanent magnets. They consist of a ...

The origins of magnetic steel can be traced back to the 18 th century when scientists began experimenting with iron alloys. In 1820, Hans Christian Oersted's accidental discovery of electromagnetism ...
