In 1845, Michael Faraday discovered what’s known today as the Faraday Effect—which describes how light and electromagnetism ...

Nearly two centuries after Michael Faraday first showed that magnetism can twist light, physicists have uncovered a hidden ...

Researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem discovered that the magnetic component of light plays a direct role in the Faraday effect, overturning a 180-year-old assumption that only its ...

Scientists have discovered that light’s long-ignored magnetic field may directly drive the Faraday effect.

A research team has demonstrated that a simple stack of thermoelectric and magnetic material layers can exhibit a substantially larger transverse thermoelectric effect -- energy conversion between ...

Composite of thermoelectric and magnetic materials with high thermopower may open up a new way to wide-ranging energy applications A NIMS research team devised a new thermoelectric generation ...

The spin Seebeck effect can be used to generate spin current over relatively long distances by simply applying a temperature gradient. Scientists in Japan 1 have demonstrated how to generate a pure ...

A University of Wyoming researcher and his team have shown that the spin Seebeck effect (SSE) can be used to detect light across a broad optical range—ultraviolet through visible to near-infrared.

Why fast-response, non-contact temperature sensing is needed in biomedical research. How thin, transparent film is used to create the Seebeck effect to measure temperature. The instrumentation ...
