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

The amorphous quality is the fundamental reason why light shines through glass but not wood (though transparent wood may be just over the horizon).

How can data be processed at lightning speed, or electricity conducted without loss? To achieve this, scientists and industry ...

Researchers have experimentally caused electrons to bend in bilayer graphene with the use of light. The way electrons flow in materials determine its electronic properties. For example, when a ...

Boston College researchers reveal a novel metal where electrons flow with fluid-like dynamics.

For the first time, chemists at ETH Zurich have successfully used extremely short, rotating flashes of light to measure and ...

Three scientists won the 2023 Nobel Prize in physics for their work developing methods to shoot laser pulses that only last an attosecond, or a mind-bogglingly tiny fraction of a second.

With black phosphorus, physicists measure the full quantum metric tensor and unlock a new view of electrons in solids.

The electrons flow around an outside circuit to the anode—which is typically composed of graphite, a cheap, energy-dense, and long-lasting material that excels at storing energy—while the ...
