This remarkable miniature rotorcraft is so lightweight and efficient that it can lift its own mass given nothing but sunlight. The entire thing weighs about as much as four paperclips, and it can fly ...

How electronic charge is distributed over a molecule determines to a large extent its chemical properties. Here, we demonstrate how the electrostatic force field, originating from the inhomogeneous ...

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 ...

What if the very principles that have powered industry for over a century were suddenly turned on their head? For decades, electromagnetic motors—reliant on copper windings and rare earth magnets—have ...

Invisibly to us, insects and other tiny creatures use static electricity to travel, avoid predators, collect pollen and more. New experiments explore how evolution may have influenced this phenomenon.

Whether you're a casual gardener or someone who needs to disinfect surfaces frequently for their actual job, you may have encountered the need for a sprayer at some point. In the past, all kinds of ...

As the science of cable recycling has advanced and the volume of cable scrap recycled has increased, new processing technology to yield increased recovery can pay dividends. Therefore, it is not ...

An electrostatic loudspeaker uses a thin plastic diaphragm residing between two perforated metal sheets (the grids or stator plates). The audio signal is applied to the grids out of phase. While one ...

The new QUAD ESL 2812X are 107cm high, while the ESL 2912X are 40cm taller. They are finished in a matt-black steal design. One of the most exciting audio brands for me at the moment is QUAD. It’s ...
