Materials react differently to electric and magnetic fields, and these reactions are known as electromagnetic responses. In ...

Physicists at NASA and Princeton generate electricity from the Earth's rotation: could wind energy be our energy source of ...

Light has always been described as an elegant partnership of electric and magnetic fields, yet for nearly two centuries ...

In-plane magnetic fields are responsible for inducing anomalous Hall effect in certain films, report researchers. By studying how these fields change electronic structures, the team discovered a large ...

Researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem discovered that the magnetic component of light plays a direct role in the Faraday effect, overturning a 180-year-old assumption that only its ...

Genetic analysis of inner ear tissue revealed cells with highly sensitive electric sensors, the same ones used by sharks to detect their prey. "The cells we describe are ideally equipped to detect ...

The quantum Hall effect, a fundamental effect in quantum mechanics, not only generates an electric but also a magnetic current. It arises from the motion of electrons on an orbit around the nuclei of ...

The Hall effect is a fundamental phenomenon in material science. It occurs when a material carrying an electric current is exposed to a magnetic field, producing a voltage perpendicular to both the ...
