use magnetic fields and radio waves to probe the spins of atoms, and to change their
orientation.
Scientists are
using a pioneering method of «caging» and cooling water molecules to study the change in
orientation of the
magnetic nuclei at the centre of each hydrogen atom — a process which transforms the molecule from one form of water to another.
This process creates a current of
magnetic dipoles that we
use to manipulate the
orientation of a second
magnetic layer,» said David Cahill, a Donald B. Willett Professor of Engineering and head of the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Illinois.
Using a rotating
magnetic field, the researchers were able to fabricate the ideal textured microstructure of the individual LiCoO2 grains making up the cathode: a perpendicular alignment of the c - plane (the vertical side) and a random
orientation of the c - axis.
Those traces, which record the
orientation of the samples relative to Earth's
magnetic field when they solidified, can be
used to determine where on the globe the rocks formed.
The perception of Earth's
magnetic field is
used by many animal species for
orientation and navigation.
Each 0 or 1 is encoded
using the
orientation of the atom's
magnetic field.
The team investigated patterns of
magnetic reversals — another method to determine age based on knowledge about an era's
magnetic orientation — and calibrated the sediments containing the fossils
using Geomagnetic Polarity Time Scale (GPTS).
«We think it is possible to
use a static
magnetic field first to help guide the nanoparticles to the clot, then alternate the
orientation of the field to increase the nanoparticles» efficiency in dissolving clots,» says Paolo Decuzzi, who led the study.
«It's an exciting property to have in a material because you could conceivably
use the different
magnetic orientations to encode data in a novel kind of
magnetic memory,...»
«It's an exciting property to have in a material because you could conceivably
use the different
magnetic orientations to encode data in a novel kind of
magnetic memory, or to nucleate new kinds of superconducting states that might be useful in a quantum computer.»
Unlike that system, however, the Switch 10 has a new
magnetic latch and hinge that allows the tablet to be attached in one of two
orientations, allowing four different
use modes, much like the multimode designs seen on the Lenovo Yoga 2 11 convertible laptop or the business - focused Lenovo ThinkPad Helix, another detachable tablet.
