The dream of levitating an object with ultra-low power consumption has been a long-standing one. The rapid advancement of rare-earth magnetic materials in recent years has made the ...

What is Magnetic Force Microscopy (MFM)? Magnetic Force Microscopy (MFM) is a scanning probe microscopy technique that allows the imaging and characterization of magnetic properties of materials at ...

Traditional magnetic separators, however, present a challenge: they generate a magnetic force that is very high near the side of the vessel closest to the magnet and decreases rapidly with distance.

Magnetic force microscopy (MFM) is a powerful technique for studying magnetic microstructures and nanostructures that relies on force detection by a cantilever with a magnetic tip. The detected ...

From cardiovascular disease to cancer to gastrointestinal tract conditions, the incredible strength of neodymium iron boron (NdFeB) rare earth magnets is opening up exciting new opportunities for ...

Research teams led by Prof. Zeng Changgan and Zhang Hui from the Hefei National Laboratory for Physical Sciences at the Microscale, the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of the ...

Researchers at the Quantum Machines Unit at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST) are studying levitating materials—substances that can remain suspended in a stable position without ...

How do magnets create a force? Magnetism is a natural force, one that works at a distance. Magnets get their force from magnetic fields created by the atoms within the metal. Magnets are useful for ...
