The encoder module incorporates a lensed LED light source and monolithic photodetector array with signal-shaping electronics to produce the two-channel bounceless TTL outputs. The internal monolithic ...

This video shows the working principle of the voice coil drives by Physik Instrumente (PI). Magnetic linear drives and voice coil actuators function based on the fact that the force acting on a ...

In 1845, Michael Faraday discovered what’s known today as the Faraday Effect—which describes how light and electromagnetism are related. A new study revealed that the magnetic component of light ...

Renishaw (www.renishaw.com) has developed new linear encoders that feature a special stainless steel scale, ultralow ±30 nm cyclic error, patented filtering optics and ±4μm accuracy to deliver the ...

A research team has demonstrated that thin films of ruthenium dioxide (RuO₂) exhibit altermagnetism—the defining property of what is now recognized as the third fundamental class of magnetic materials ...

Magnetic materials are materials studied and used mainly for their magnetic properties. The magnetic response of a materials is largely determined by the magnetic dipole moment associated with the ...

We’ve rounded up the best MagSafe, Qi2, Qi2 25W, and MagSafe-compatible magnetic chargers, from the plain pad to multi-functional stands (up to six devices charged), and even the most colorful—from ...
