Non-metal chemistry encompasses the study of elements and compounds that, by virtue of their electronic configurations and bonding characteristics, do not exhibit metallic properties. This field spans ...

Physicists have devised a method to turn a non-magnetic metal into a magnet using laser light. Physicists from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) and the Niels Bohr Institute ...

"Being able to generate magnetism in materials that are not naturally magnetic opens new paths to devices that use abundant and hazardless elements, such as carbon and copper," says postgraduate ...
