Researchers at MIT have observed “electron whirlpools” for the first time. The bizarre behavior arises when electricity flows as a fluid, which could make for more efficient electronics. Like water, ...
"All conductive materials contain impurities and imperfections that block electron flow, which causes resistance. Historically, people have taken a low-resolution approach to identifying where ...
A new electrical method to conveniently change the direction of electron flow in some quantum materials could have implications for the development of next-generation electronic devices and quantum ...
A team of researchers from Boston College has created a new metallic specimen where the motion of electrons flows in the same way water flows in a pipe—fundamentally changing from particle-like to ...
A round-trip journey of electrons: Electron catalysis enables direct fixation of N2 to azo compounds
Breakthrough in N 2 activation! This study unveils an electron catalysis strategy that directly converts N 2 into azo compounds under mild conditions—a game-changer for nitrogen fixation. By ...
Electrons in graphene break a key law of metals and reveal a strange quantum fluid. The discovery has surprised scientists.
A new method by Penn State researchers conveniently changes the direction of electron flow in materials that exhibit the quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) effect — a phenomenon in which the flow of ...
