LONDON: We rely quite a bit on antennas throughout our daily lives, as much business is conducted through devices with antennas these days, including credit card readers, laptops, routers to name a few — and they’re essential to the routine of most people’s lives in some way or another.
They have their limitations, as there’s that day when a signal seems almost impossible to find it’s of the highest priority. But there’s good news, as things may be a little bit easier for us all in light of a recently published study in the Journal of Applied Physics, as a group of researchers from North Carolina State University have developed an antenna made from liquid metal, particularly gallium (pictured above). This antenna can shift around and change frequencies when necessary, boosting a signal, according to study co-author Michael Dickey who was quoted by Phys.Org as having said that “at least two times greater than systems using electronic switches”.
