Laser guided maglev graphite air hockey A graphite disk levitating over a bed of rare earth permanent magnets can be 'pushed' around or made to spin using a laser beam, Japanese scientists have shown. The phenomenon can also be used to convert sunlight into movement, offering a possible alternative way to harness solar energy. |
