Crucible-free processing techniques allow investigations to be carried out on melts of materials with a high melting point or chemically reactive melts in which undesirable chemical reactions occur ...

Levitating sensors are moving from science-fiction imagery to practical laboratory tools, promising a new generation of ...

Electromagnetic levitation (EML) has emerged as a pivotal non-contact technique for processing and analysing molten materials. By employing time-varying magnetic fields, EML not only suspends liquid ...

New video from SCTL Korea room temperature superconductor experimenters claimed to shows a very strong full levitation effect. Full levitation would be evidence of the Meissner effect found only in ...

To deliver reliable mechanical and electric properties, nanomaterials must have consistent, predictable shapes and surfaces, as well as scalable production techniques. Engineers are solving this ...

Another report from the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair in Atlanta. This video shows Chris King with his project titled "Electromagnetic Levitation." Take a look in the Extended Post.

Recently, I finished another simple version of my electromagnetic levitation demo device that levitates a small object under an electromagnet. What makes it different from my earlier model is the ...

It looks like a magic trick: Cells at the bottom of a liquid medium begin levitating, then hovering at a particular height. With no physical contact, an invisible force directs certain cells to float ...

(Nanowerk News) In order for metal nanomaterials to deliver on their promise to energy and electronics, they need to shape up -- literally. To deliver reliable mechanical and electric properties, ...
