Introduction Spintronics mainly refers to the study that deals with nuclear’s role. It can also be called the role of an electron in a solid-state. This electronic device exploits the properties of spin along with the freedom of charge degrees. It is also named spin Flextronics. This kind of technology intrinsically studies the spin of…

Introduction Solenoid Engine generally generates a uniform magnetic field when the current passes through the coil that is wrapped around it. In the present day, it has been seen that automobiles, as a primary source chemical energy are used in order to produce combustion heat. This combustion is contributing to general pollutants. Here the Solenoid…

Introduction Particle accelerators assist in accelerating the constitutional particles such as protons or electrons to very high velocity. Ernest Lawrence made the first particle accelerator in 1930 at California University. Many scientists utilise particle accelerators to acknowledge the universe’s origin and research the subatomic world structure around the people. Particle accelerators help scientists to advance…

Introduction Light is represented by an Electromagnetic Wave (EMW), where it travels by oscillating electric and magnetic field intensities simultaneously. Here, the electric field will be perpendicular to the magnetic field and vice versa. Not only that, these two components together oscillate perpendicular to the direction of propagation of light waves. Mainly, oscillations due to…

Introduction We see beautiful nature through light, which is an electromagnetic wave. We hear sweet melodies through sound waves. Waves have numerous applications in everyday life, from cellular communication to laser surgery. If we drop a stone on a steady surface of the water, we will see a reflection on the surface of the water…

Introduction The electromagnetic spectrum encompasses a wide range of radiation emitted by stars, such as our sun. Waves of electromagnetic radiation commute through space. The frequency of a wavelength explains the no of waves/second it generates. Wavelength is the size of a wave in meters. At one end of the spectrum, radio waves with the…

Introduction If you haven’t heard about the mystery of the nature of light, here is a quick refresher: Light behaves both as a particle and as a wave in different scenarios. While the causes behind this duality are as of yet, unknown, scientists still have been able to explain these natures independently. Thus, we now…

Introduction Solenoid and Toroid are two different concepts of electromagnetism. Toroid is called a solenoid belt into a circular motion and the shape of it is a loop-like structure it is also called a hollow circular ring and a disk-like structure can be seen. On the other hand, solenoid is called a type of electromagnet…

Introduction Light travels across space and different media in the form of electromagnetic waves. The term electromagnetic means they contain both electric as well as magnetic fields. Akin to other waves, light waves are also characterized by a certain frequency and wavelength. For example, light waves with frequencies in the range of 400 to 800…

Introduction Before diving into microwaves, we must study a few basic concepts about the electromagnetic spectrum. As you might be aware, light behaves like a wave in certain situations. Not only that, but it is also an electromagnetic wave, which means it carries both electric as well as magnetic components. Naturally, if the light is…
