Ferrofluids as Thermal Ratchets [PDF]
Colloidal suspensions of ferromagnetic nano-particles, so-called ferrofluids, are shown to be suitable systems to demonstrate and investigate thermal ratchet behavior: By rectifying thermal fluctuations, angular momentum is transferred to a resting ferrofluid from an oscillating magnetic field without net rotating component.

Typical dampers and energy harvesters based on characteristics of ferrofluids
Ferrofluids are a type of nanometer-scale functional material with fluidity and superparamagnetism. They are composed of ferromagnetic particles, surfactants, and base liquids.

Lubrication of sliding silicon MEMS devices using ferrofluids‐based magnetic matrix texture
This paper aims to explore the possibility of using ferrofluids for the lubrication of MEMS devices under the influence of different magnetic field texture configurations. For the investigation of proposed work, a novel silicon‐based pin‐on‐disk friction

The effect of ions doping on the rheological properties of ferrite ferrofluids
A series of ferrite nanoparticles were synthesized via ion doping and then were coated by surfactant and dispersed in perfluorinated polyether oil (PFPE-oil), and the various ferrite ferrofluids were obtained. The scanning electron microscope was used to
