What if the future of precision mechanics didn’t rely on massive manufacturing plants or multimillion-dollar R&D budgets, but instead emerged from a 3D printer on a hobbyist’s workbench? That’s ...
Many natural processes, ranging from magnetism to chemical reactions, entail the movement and rotation of particles at very ...
Twisted light: self-torque could be used to manipulate molecules. (Courtesy: iStock/VikaSuh) Physicists in Spain and the US have shown that the orbital angular momentum, or twistedness, of light can ...
Casimir interactions play an important role in the dynamics of nanoscale objects. Here, we investigate the noncontact transfer of angular momentum at the nanoscale through the analysis of the Casimir ...
The generation of oscillations in the microwave frequency range is one of the most important applications expected from spintronics devices exploiting the spin-transfer phenomenon, which is the ...
