Using Special Crystals, Researchers Make a Paper Clip Invisible

Metamaterials have long been thought the key to creating the working, visible spectrum "invisibility cloak" promised us by sci-fi, but it might be time for metamaterials to move over. Two independent labs-one at the University

New Nanocomposite Magnets Could Reduce the Demand for Rare Earth Elements

A little exchange coupling goes a long way. Rare earth elements are getting a lot of ink these days, as questions about future supply have led to both political and economic tensions, and to a renewed

Shifting Position of Magnetic North Requires Tampa Airport to Rearrange Runways

The north magnetic pole is slowly sliding from its current locale in the far north of Canada toward Russia at a rate of something like 40 miles per year, but most of us don't feel the repercussions of that. However, far from the frosty Canadian tundra, sunny Tampa, Fla.,

Officials Claim Chinese Rare Earth Metals Embargo Expands to Include to U.S. and Europe

It was disconcerting last month when industry officials reported that China had halted shipments of rare earth elements to Japan. Now, if reports in
