Washington, D.C., has spent the past five years fixating on rare earths—where they’re mined, how they’re processed, and who controls the magnet supply chain. That attention is overdue. But the ...

Scientists in the United States have created a small device that produces a tiny electrical signal from Earth’s natural rotation. Although the voltage is extremely small, the experiment shows that ...

Ames Laboratory scientists discovered magnetic interactions that could be the key to customizing how electrons flow through special materials. The results could impact future technological ...

Scientists at the University of New Hampshire have unleashed artificial intelligence to dramatically speed up the hunt for next-generation magnetic materials. By building a massive, searchable ...

MUNICH, Germany—ZF unveiled an electric motor that does not require magnets or rare earth materials, reducing reliance on mining in countries such as China and cutting manufacturing's carbon footprint ...

China controls about 90% of the entire global supply of rare earth magnets, including their mining and refining. That means that most of the neodymium, dysprosium, and terbium that end up in EV motors ...

Most materials we use in everyday life expand slightly when heated and return to their original size when cooled. In addition ...

Access to rare earths is absolutely crucial for defense and high-tech industries, and securing sufficient supply could either make or break U.S. national security.

The top magnetic assembly manufacturers are not necessarily the largest companies by revenue. More often, leadership in this market is defined by the ability to serve technically demanding customers ...

Japan’s IHI has announced a “breakthrough” in magnet technology for high-speed motors, which could enhance the performance of future electric aircraft. The company says that it and local collaborators ...
