Physics: Current generated by the quantum Hall effect has additional magnetic properties

The quantum Hall effect, a fundamental effect in quantum mechanics, not only generates an electric but also a magnetic current. It arises from the motion of electrons on an orbit around the nuclei of atoms. These results can potentially be used to develop new types of inexpensive and energy-efficient devices.

Robotic touch sensors are not just skin deep

Researchers argue that the problem that has been lurking in the margins of many papers about touch sensors lies in the robotic skin itself.
