Work reveals new ways to understand and manipulate electrons in materials. MIT physicists, in collaboration with colleagues, ...

For the first time, researchers have successfully measured the shape of an electron as it moves through a solid, opening a ...

For the first time, scientists have measured the shape of an electron in solids, opening the door to advances in quantum materials.

Tokamak Energy receives a new 1 MW gyrotron to superheat plasma in its ST40 fusion device, advancing the development of commercial fusion.

A new theoretical approach is proposed to explain the nature of the well-known narrow and intense optical J-band of J-aggregates of polymethine dyes. The old approach proposed by Franck and Teller in ...

The resulting oscillations exert a force on the electrons in graphene. This generates a circular electron density wave that propagates through the graphene beneath the tip. The wave can reflect ...

In a world-first, scientists used precisely controlled optical traps, known as "magic-wavelength optical tweezers," to create a highly stable environment that supports long-lasting entanglement, a ...

Concept of atomic orbitals as one-electron wave functions: Variation of and 2 with r for 1s and 2s orbitals; various quantum numbers (principal, angular momentum, and magnetic quantum numbers ...

By capitalizing on the "valley," a quantum state in an electron's energy structure that functions as a discrete data storage unit, valleytronics enables faster, more efficient data handling than ...
