Researchers have uncovered friction without contact—driven entirely by magnetic interactions. As two magnetic layers slide, ...

The relationship between friction and load, quantified three centuries ago, has an exception when the interaction causes magnetic realignment. The discovery won’t let you off the hook when dragging ...

In MFM, a magnetic-coated AFM probe interacts with magnetic field gradients from the sample, causing detectable forces on the probe's cantilever. To focus on magnetic interactions, MFM is often ...

Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden published their findings in Advanced Materials, demonstrating a material that allows two competing magnetic forces to coexist within a single ...

Magnetic bead separation is a fast, effective, and clean process that scientists use as an alternative to filtration and centrifugation techniques for separation. Magnetic beads and particles can be ...
