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

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

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 ...

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

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.

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 ...

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

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 ...

Spintronics, or spin-electronics, is a revolutionary approach to information processing that utilizes the intrinsic angular ...

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 ...
