unipolar
Having one pole
Unipolar describes something with a single pole or center of power.
In geopolitics, a unipolar world has one dominant superpower: The post-Cold War era was briefly unipolar.
In psychology, unipolar depression involves only depressive episodes, distinguishing it from bipolar disorder's alternating highs and lows.
In physics, unipolar refers to devices or systems operating with one magnetic or electrical pole.
