Scientists simulate magnetization reversal of Nd-Fe-B magnets using large-scale finite element models
NIMS simulated magnetization reversal in Nd-Fe-B magnets using large-scale finite element models based on electron microscopy data. These simulations revealed microstructural features affecting coercivity, guiding the development of high-performance permanent magnets Green power generation, electric transportation, and other high-tech industries rely heavily on high-performance permanent magnets, among which the Nd-Fe-B magnets are the strongest and […]
Soft, stretchy electrode simulates touch sensations using electrical signals
Researchers at the University of California San Diego have developed a soft, stretchy electronic device that simulates pressure or vibration sensations when worn on the skin. This innovative device represents a step toward creating haptic technologies capable of reproducing a more varied and realistic range of touch sensations The device consists of a soft, stretchable […]
Scientists develop the next generation of highly efficient memory materials with atom-level control
Similar to the butterfly effect, tiny adjustments can yield significant outcomes. Researchers at Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH) achieved a breakthrough by modifying a material called ‘spin-orbit torque (SOT).’ This material is now a key focus in next-generation DRAM memory. This research team, led by Professor Daesu Lee and Yongjoo Jo, a Ph.D. […]
