Magnetization switching of nanomagnets is a core technology in magnetic recording. Conventionally, applying a magnetic field larger than the switching field can reverse the magnetization direction.
Biological rotary motors can alter their mechanical function by changing the direction of rotary motion. Achieving a similar reversal of direction of rotation in artificial molecular motors presents a ...
Q. I read that Venus is the only planet to rotate clockwise. What dictates the direction of rotation? A. In fact, there are two planets that spin on their axes from east to west. The other is Uranus.
