To comply with new laws on reducing energy usage, fluorescent and HID lighting systems — both examples of arc discharge lamps — have become more complex and varied in their performance. To understand ...

A simple electrical method provides an alternative way to prepare graphene samples, according to researchers in India. Graphene—one-atom-thick sheets of carbon packed in a honeycomb structure—has ...

Carbon nanotube synthesis by arc discharge is a well‐established technique that leverages the high temperatures produced by an electric arc between carbon electrodes. This method generates a plasma ...

In addition to Gavin (center) and Daniel (right), who are challenging the shooting this time, YouTube channel ElectroBOOMMr. Medi (left). Marx generator made by Meddy appeared. This is a device aimed ...

There are a number of methods of making carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and fullerenes. Fullerenes were first observed after vaporizing graphite with a short-pulse, high-power laser, however this was not a ...

Of all the methods of making big pieces of metal into smaller pieces of metal, perhaps none is more interesting than electrical discharge machining. EDM is also notoriously fussy, what with having to ...

Users can easily reduce energy usage with dimmers. Dimming technology has evolved considerably over the last decade, especially in the arc discharge lamp category. What began as a device for simply ...

The Institute for Electronics and Electrical Engineers (IEEE) Industry Applications Society, Electrical Safety Committee held its annual electrical safety workshop (ESW) March 6-11, 2016. "Since its ...
