We’re surrounded by electrically powered devices these days. From our lights, to our kettles, and of course our phones! Electricity flows through copper or aluminium wire to power or charge all ...

Noble gases such as helium and neon are poor conductors of electricity, so we call them electrical insulators. Copper and other metals are conductors, which allow the free movement of electrons ...

A kind of umbilical cord between different quantum states can be found in some materials. Researchers at TU Wien have now shown that this "umbilical cord" is generic to many materials.

Insulators made from a combination of materials, typically polymer and fiberglass, used in high-voltage applications to support and insulate electrical conductors. Electric Field Distribution ...

Porcelain insulators are crucial components in electrical transmission and distribution systems, primarily due to their excellent electrical properties, mechanical strength, and durability.

Scientists have developed a hybrid material that switches between conducting and insulating states while maintaining ...
