Levitating Silicon Chip on Pyrolytic Graphite

[otivaeey]

i don't get it. Isn't just graphite itself necessary? why add silicon chip on top of graphite?

[aMammoth]

Now how much would I need to levitate, me? I'm guessing I should just buy some superconductors, probably be cheaper.

Fucking Magnets How Do They Work!

[Rufftyroff]

The bigger the cubes, the higher the levitation? Then I'll get 4 cubes that are the largest.

Pyrolytic Graphite is strongly diamagnetic in only one molecular direction. all atoms in the Pyrolytic Graphite are lined up in one direction.

wat makes it levetate?

Pretty brave and facinating ianorg, i mean im not brave enuf to go lookin for these

but i want too0o0o

How did you get it out of the case? ( the chip )

[ianorg]

Luck. :-)

Sometimes you can find chips just glued to a circuit board. Other times if you crush it with a vice it splits perfectly. But most times it just destroys the whole thing. I have a handfull I lucked into opening, but have given up trying to extract the silicon out of the black IC packaging. It's just too hard without some REALLY nasty acids.

[buchnermarkus]

Or maybe you know someone who works at a factory, and he can get you some of the broken ones before being put into the case.

@ianorg burning at low temperature also somewhat works...it's a bit messy and smelly of course...

[whoisondrugs]

There goes the data !!!

[darksight]

what kind of data? in a chip there are only transistors...

[psnoob]

exactly what are you talking about whoisondrugs?

[djchainz]

nice
