But that may soon change with a team of engineers at the University of California, San Diego developing a technique that uses an oscillating electric field to separate nanoparticles from blood ...

The new method uses an additional oscillating electric field (besides the charging field) that should be capable of charging a lithium-ion battery in a fraction of the time compared with ...

Whereas such measurements are easy for constant electric fields, the extremely rapidly oscillating fields of a laser beam pose a difficult challenge to the researchers. In principle, the light ...

Paul's design, specifically, enabled the 3D-capture of ions owing to the use of both static electric fields and oscillating electric fields. This is not the only type of ion trap in use today ...
