Electrons in graphene can act like a perfect fluid, defying established physical laws. This finding advances both fundamental ...

Strange metals defy the 60-year-old understanding of electric current as a flow of discrete charges. (Nanowerk News) We all learned that electricity is caused by electrons moving in a metal. Each ...

Researchers from the Indian Institute of Science’s Department of Physics, together with researchers from Japan's National ...

Similar to graphene, the idea is that electrons can flow freely through the crystal matrix of ceramics, as they do through graphene's wandering resonance bonds.

In their simulations of 2D semiconductors with strong electron-phonon interactions, the researchers found that when treating both the charge and heat carriers as part of the same system, the ...

Spintronics is an emerging field that leverages the spin, or the intrinsic angular momentum, of electrons. By harnessing this ...

If the conditions are just right, some of the electrons inside a material will arrange themselves into a tidy honeycomb pattern — like a solid within a solid. Physicists have now directly imaged ...

"Typically, electrons are scattered by phonons which leads to the usual diffusive motion of electrons in metals. A new theory shows that when electrons strongly interact with phonons, they will form a ...

Resistive random access memory (ReRAM), which is based on oxide materials, is gaining attention as a next-generation memory ...

The top converts is an ultraviolet pulse that release ultra fast electrons inside the microscope, while the bottom section uses another two lasers to gate, initiate and precisely control electron ...

Scientists have long held that electricity is carried by individual electrons with discrete charges moving in a metal, even in the case of electrons clumped into quasiparticles. However, &ldquo ...
