Rapid development of information technologies originates from the exponential increase in the density of information that can be processed, stored, and transfer by the unit area of relevant devices. There is, however, a growing amount of evidences that the progress achieved in this way approaches its limits. Various novel ideas put forward to circumvent barriers ahead are described. Particular ...

Microscopic swimming devices hold promise for radically new applications in lab-on-a-chip and microfluidic technology, diagnostics and drug delivery etc. In this paper, we demonstrate the experimental verification of a new class of autonomous ferromagnetic swimming devices, actuated and controlled solely by an oscillating magnetic field. These devices are based on a pair of interacting ferromag...

The ferromagnetic material launcher is a coilgun that launches magnetically permeable material. This technology has both military and scientific applications such as defense, space launches, train travel, etc. This project uses principles of magnetic fields, electric circuitry, computer programming, and mobile application software in order to achieve the project goals; these being the FML capab...

Using first-principles theory, we predict ferromagnetism in Cr-doped GaN nanowires irrespective of the sites that the Cr atoms occupy. This is in contrast to Mn-doped GaN nanowires in which the magnetic coupling between the Mn atoms is sensitive to the Mn--Mn and Mn--N distances, although the ground state of Mn-doped GaN nanowires is ferromagnetic. Each Cr atom carries a magnetic moment of abou...
