Exotic Metal Found to Exhibit Giant Hall Effect Without any Magnetic Field Written by AZoMFeb 23 2021 A magnetic field can deflect an electric current. In the case of conducting materials, this results in what is called the Hall effect, which is usually used to quantify magnetic fields. The material behaves as if magnetic monopoles were present.

Scientists at TU Wien, working with researchers from the Paul Scherrer Institute (Switzerland), McMaster University (Canada) and Rice University (United States), have now achieved a fascinating discovery: an exotic metal compos...

Electric current is deflected by a magnetic field - this leads to the so-called Hall effect. A surprising discovery has now been made at TU Wien: an exotic metal was examined and a giant Hall effect was found to be produced by the material, in the total absence of any magnetic field.

Date Time New microscopy concept enters into force The first demonstration of an approach that inverts the standard paradigm of scanning probe microscopy raises the prospect of force sensing at the fundamental limit. Configuration of the inverted scanning force microscope. (Graphics: Alexander Eichler, ETH Zurich) The development of scanning probe microscopes in the early 1980s brought a breakthrough in imaging, throwing open a window into the world at the nanoscale. The key idea is to scan an extremely sharp tip over a substrate and to record at each location the strength of the interaction ...

(Latvijas Televīzija) University of Latvia, together with Estonian colleagues, have conducted a major research last year in the field of nuclear fusion reactors, Latvian Television reported January 25. An in-depth understanding and forecasting of the functional properties of modern materials in extreme radiation conditions. This is one of last year's most important achievements in science, according to the Latvian Academy of Sciences. The study involves a new type of fusion reactor that could provide the world with inexhaustible and almost free energy on earth in ...
