Abstract

In examples, systems and methods for using skewed waveforms to eject debris using electromagnetic propulsion are disclosed. The systems and methods include a first electronic device having a surface. The systems and methods also include a signal generator configured to generate a skewed signal configured to cause a movement of particles on the surface of the first electronic device. Additionally, the systems and methods include an antenna coupled to the signal generator, where the antenna is configured to receive the skewed signal from the signal generator and radiate the skewed signal as electromagnetic energy proximate to the surface of the first electronic device.
