Something that probably unites many Hackaday readers is an idle pursuit of browsing AliExpress for new pieces of tech. Perhaps it’s something akin to social media doomscrolling without the induced ...

The sub-20 MHz frequency is merely the fundamental resonance, other resonances can be achieved in the same crystal at multiples of the fundamental. This effect can be readily demonstrated through ...

Almost anytime physicists announce that they’ve discovered a new particle, whether it’s the Higgs boson or the recently bagged double-charm tetraquark, what they’ve actually spotted is a small bump ...

Using nuclear magnetic resonance, researchers at ETH Zurich have studied the atomic environments of single platinum atoms in solid supports as well as their spatial orientation. In the future, this ...

Few techniques are as versatile or as powerful as Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. First detailed in 1938, with the first identifiable instruments constructed in the mid-1940s, NMR ...

Sound is one of the great mysteries. It surrounds us all the time, yet it is invisible and has no smell. Except for the most booming of subwoofers, we rarely feel its vibrations on our skin. In fact, ...

A team of scientists has discovered an electrical detection method for terahertz electromagnetic waves, which are extremely difficult to detect. The discovery could help miniaturize the detection ...

Piezoelectric effect is when certain solid material is compressed under mechanical stress, and it develops a voltage potential by accumulating electrical charges. French physicists Jacques and Pierre ...
