Carnegie's Yingwei Fei and Lin Wang were part of an international research team that synthesized a new ultrahard form of carbon glass with a wealth of potential practical applications for devices and electronics.
Physicists have created a new ultra-thin two-layer material with quantum properties that normally require rare earth compounds.
Forcing electrons to flow perpendicularly to a heat flow requires an external magnetic field – this is known as the Nernst effect. In a permanently magnetized material (a ferromagnet), an anomalous Nernst effect (ANE) exists that can generate electricity from heat even without a magnetic field.
Quantifying the impact of temperature on bulk powder properties such as flowability for more effective process optimization.
