Since nanoelectronic devices are likely to be defective and error-prone, developing an understanding of circuit reliabilities and critical components will be required. In this paper, probabilistic transfer matrices are used to compare the reliability of a small multiplier circuit when considering both magnetic and molecular QCA implementations. These implementations are considered since the cir...

usually both ends of a transformer winding are at the same side of the magnetic core. with this arrangement there are automaticaly the same number of the turns for each winding in both core windows next to the middle leg of a three phase three leg core type transformer. contrary to this arrangement it is possible to put the two ends of a winding at the different sides of the core. in this case ...

The equivalent circuit model for artificial magnetic materials based on various arrangements of split rings is generalized by taking into account losses in the substrate or matrix material. It is shown that a modification is needed to the known macroscopic permeability function in order to correctly describe these materials. Depending on the dominating loss mechanism (conductive losses in metal...

We propose a sequence of experiments with the goal of exploring electromagnetic induction phenomena and “magnetic friction” forces. The experiments have been tested with high school students in the context of a program of cooperation between our Physics Department and the Regional School District. The experiments involve permanent magnets and conductors (a coil of wire or an aluminium plate) in...
