An electric jet engine can be the next revolution for aircraft.

An electric jet engine can be the next revolution for aircraft.

The electric jet engine means the engine, which will create thrust by using electric arc, and that thing doesn't require the fuel at all. Sometimes also plasma engines are mentioned as electric engines. In some models, the plasma is formed at the front of the engine, and then the magnetic field will pull it backward.

But the term "electric jet engine" means an engine, which uses only electricity to make thrust. So the systems can use plasma, but they can also be more traditional-looking engines, which are using electric arcs in the combustion chamber for creating the pressure, which is normally created by using the burning fuel.

Or the thrust of the engine can increase by injecting water or hydrogen in the combustion chamber, which allows the aircraft, what uses this kind of system fly to the orbital trajectory. In that case, the engine compressor will be closed by using a hatch, and the hydrogen will inject into the combustion chamber.

The electric jet engine needs electricity to create the electric arc, and sometimes people think that this thing requires a nuclear reactor. But there is a possibility that this kind of aircraft can charge its battery wirelessly by using powerful radio waves.

The high-voltage chemical batteries can be the high-voltage capacitors, which are cooled to a temperature that is quite near the zero kelvin degrees. The electric jet engine can be the system, what is used in the next generation small-size spacecraft, what is diving to the atmospheres of the giant planets and their moons. But those engines can also allow that the aircraft or drone can fly even weeks if the electric supply is confirmed.

The electric storage capacity of that kind of aircraft can increase by installing wind generators and solar panels on the wings and in the body of the craft, and that thing can improve the operational range. The aircraft cannot be a perpetual motion machine, but if it will rise to the low Earth orbiter, the batteries of that system can load by using solar panels, and that thing gives those engines a very high capacity.

Also when the craft will dive into the atmosphere it can load the batteries by using windmills, and that thing would make the electric jet engines more powerful and multipurpose tools than any engine before. Maybe this system is not ready yet, but it can be the engine of tomorrow.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low. The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away. When the box is filled with quantum gas and som

Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies. Credit: UNIST" (ScitechDaily, Metamaterial Magic: Scientists Develop New Material That Can Dynamically Tune Its Shape and Mechanical Properties in Real-Time) Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field. An electro-optical activator can also be an IR state, which means. The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate. AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material. The metamaterial can cru
