The findings confirm theoretical predictions that certain metallic specimens could support an electron-phonon liquid phase. A team of researchers from Boston College has created a…
Chemists investigate the interactions of metal complexes and light. When a molecule is hit by light, in many cases a so-called “photoinduced” reaction is initiated….
MIT researchers are working to develop an electron-cloaking material that would “hide” particles from passing electrons, possibly leading to more efficient thermoelectric devices and new…
A new paper from David Mazziotti, a professor in chemistry at the University of Chicago, solves what specialists call the “N-representability problem,” how to compute…
A new technique developed by an international research team uses X-ray laser pulses from SLAC’s Linac Coherent Light Source to zap the innermost electrons out…
While using a technique to simultaneously blast and probe samples of graphite, scientists at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory saw ultrafast changes from solid to liquid…
Using SLAC’s Linac Coherent Light Source, a team of physicists discovered never-before-seen behavior by electrons in a material called striped nickelate, representing a new era…
A newly published paper details the findings made by physicists while measuring the coherence and spin of excitons in a refrigerated system. The team discovered…
As efforts continue to improve nanotechnology and molecular electronic devices, a team of researchers has provided the first experimental determination of the pathways by which…
In search of better thermoelectric materials, a team of physicists turned to a material NASA engineers first used roughly 40 years ago for spacecraft design,…
A team of physicists are the first to successfully realize a quantum walk in two dimensions and believe by simulating these quantum walks, physicists could…
Over the last six years, researchers at the Berkeley Lab have made great progress on APEX, an electron gun that operates at radio frequency in…
The first ever electrons with tunable properties were observed at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. By repositioning the carbon monoxide molecules that were placed on…
It has been extremely difficult to create graphene-based devices that reliably operate at room temperature and pressure, until now. By submerging sheets of graphene in…
A newly proposed nuclear clock would be nearly 100 times more accurate than the best atomic clocks we have now, would be accurate to 19…
Using laser induced electron diffraction, a team of physicists recorded the first real-time image of two atoms vibrating in a molecule. While using common atmospheric…
Researchers at U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne and Thomas Jefferson National Laboratories have demonstrated that a quarter of the nucleons in a dense nucleus exceed…
Physicists at the Max Planck Institute used a short electric pulse to change the magnetic transport properties of a material sandwich consisting of a ferroelectric…
