A sophisticated halide material can go from diode to non-diode and back depending on the temperature differential across its terminals. How an advanced material can become both p- and n-material based ...

Applying magnetic fields has been the method of choice to magnetize non-magnetic materials, but they are difficult to focus. The magneto-electric effect and voltage-induced magnetization generate ...

Driving force An experiment has confirmed that an oscillating temperature gradient boosts heat flow in fluids. (Courtesy: iStock/Mervana) Physicists in the Czech Republic have shown that heat flows ...

Background and aims Interactive effect of warming and precipitation addition on litter decomposition is still scarce. Moreover, nonlinear response of its temperature sensitivity to warming is ...
