  4. Faraday cage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_cage

    A Faraday cage or Faraday shield is an enclosure used to block some electromagnetic fields. A Faraday shield may be formed by a continuous covering of conductive material, or in the case of a Faraday cage, by a mesh of such materials. Faraday cages are named after scientist Michael Faraday, who first constructed one in 1836. [1]

  5. Solid state ionics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_state_ionics

    The field of solid-state ionics was first developed in Europe, starting with the work of Michael Faraday on solid electrolytes Ag 2 S and PbF 2 in 1834. Fundamental contributions were later made by Walther Nernst, who derived the Nernst equation and detected ionic conduction in heterovalently doped zirconia, which he applied in his Nernst lamp.

    Michael Faraday presenting his experiments with electromagnetism at a Christmas Lecture, 1856. This episode provides an overview of the nature of electromagnetism, as discovered through the work of Michael Faraday. Tyson explains how the idea of another force of nature, similar to gravitational forces, had been postulated by Isaac Newton before.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adsorption_refrigeration

    Adsorption refrigeration was invented by Michael Faraday in 1821, even though the basis of artificial modern refrigeration dates back to 1748 with William Cullen's experiments. [1] Adsorption is sometimes referred to as solid sorption. [2]
