MIT scientists develop PV cleaning system based on electrostatic repulsion Scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have developed a system that can be operated at a voltage of around ...

In a world-first achievement, scientists have developed a new hydrogel whose properties are dominated by electrostatic repulsion, rather than attractive interactions. In a world-first achievement ...

In a world-first achievement, scientists from the RIKEN Center for Emergent Matter Science in Japan, along with colleagues from the National Institute of Material Science and the University of Tokyo, ...

If you have an interest in audio there are plenty of opportunities for home construction of hi-fi equipment. You can make yourself an amplifier which will be as good as any available commercially, and ...

As renewable energy storage demand grows, the limitations of aqueous zinc metal batteries (AZMBs) in subzero environments become more pronounced. Now, researchers from Harbin University of Science and ...

Without Mg 2+ ions, the negatively charged nucleosome fiber is stretched by electrostatic repulsion (left). Mg 2+ can eliminate the repulsion and promote nucleosome-nucleosome binding (center) and ...

A new study published in Nature Nanotechnology has shown that long-range attraction between similarly charged particles in solution is possible. Remarkably, the group also discovered that, depending ...

Over on his YouTube channel [Ryan Inis] has a video about how electrostatic motors are breaking all the rules. He explains that these days most motors are electromagnetic but suggests that may be ...

The authors have used micromachining techniques to create structures that contain interconnected compartments, each measuring a few hundreds of nanometres in height (Fig. 1). This is advantageous for ...
