QuoteThe flashiest discovery in science this week is a powerful force field that makes particles quickly come together.
The technology is coming out of Rice University, where scientists have developed a way to make carbon nanotubes self-assemble in a dish using a powerful Tesla coil transformer circuit. Similar to graphene, carbon nanotubes are considered "supermaterials" with many potential applications but they have yet to be implemented on a wide scale. This new development will allow scientists to build circuits without actually touching them, marking a major step forward for potential uses of the material.
Paul Cherukuri, adjunct assistant professor of chemistry at Rice University, explained that the Tesla coil system creates a high-voltage field that causes the nanotubes to align from a distance, a process they call teslaphoresis. When scientists turn the powerful machine on, the disparate particles quickly coalesce into a line.
"It's very much like a web stringing out together," he said. "The physics of that is much richer than we originally thought. There is new science coming out of this as we go."

doesn't this discovery bring us
closer to the light of god? :wile:

First thing that came to mind too.
