You might have heard of electrets being used in microphones, but do you know what they are? Electrets produce a semi-permanent static electric field, similar to how a magnet produces a magnetic field.

Those electric fields are theorized to play an important role in forming a precise environment in active sites where molecules react and rapidly transition to new molecules. Now a study co-led by ...

Fleeting electron-hole pairs are giving scientists a new window into optimizing light-emitting devices (LEDs). Using quantum ...

Scientists in the United States have discovered an electric field method to improve heat ...
