This alternating electric field produces what are called dielectrophoretic forces, which are essentially a non-uniform electric field creating a traveling wave that pushes dust across the surface. By ...

Molecules in water and other polar media are subject to strong electric forces. Such forces originate from their liquid environment, which at ambient temperature undergoes ultrafast structural ...

Fleeting electron-hole pairs are giving scientists a new window into optimizing light-emitting devices (LEDs). Using quantum ...

As the Parker Solar Probe ventures closer to the sun, we are learning new things about our home star. In a new study, physicists led by the University of Iowa report the first definitive measurements ...

Glass embedded with electric-field-driven electrodes removes dust from its surface without water or scrubbing, offering a durable, passive cleaning solution for solar panels and other exposed optical ...

Understand electric and magnetic forces through a clear velocity selector example! In this video, we break down how charged particles behave under electric and magnetic fields, explain the underlying ...

A research team from Xi'an Jiaotong University has developed a new method for bioprinting skeletal muscle tissue.
