Driven by technological demand to breach the gigahertz (10^9 hertz) switching speed limit of today’s magnetic memory and logic devices, a team of researchers have devised a novel technique of switching magnetism that is at least 1000 times faster than that currently employed opening up the terahertz age (10^12 hertz). Hard drives, magnetic random access memory (RAM) and other computing […]
The holidays are nigh, and if you haven’t put out your Christmas tree just yet, maybe you’d like to consider something truly special. At the forefront of where art and science meet, Sachiko Kodama makes the most exquisite shapes by stimulating ferrofluids – basically oil with bits iron with a surfactant to prevent clumping (some kind of acid) – with […]
By doping graphite, researchers in Germany have reported that they found tantalizing hints of superconductivity at room-temperatures and far above, like water boiling point (100°C.). Superconductivity is a property which describes zero resistance electrical conductivity, however this property has only been observed at temperatures lower than -100°C. Graphite has been found to exhibit superconductivity in […]
