A new study reveals that PtBi2, an otherwise ordinary-looking crystal, hosts an entirely new form of superconductivity ...

PtBi2 looks like an ordinary grey crystal, but a new study shows its electrons move in unusual ways not seen in other ...

No chemical reaction or energy transfer process can take place without electrons, as they are responsible for forming and breaking chemical bonds. Therefore, to control and manipulate chemical ...

Superconductive materials can conduct electricity with no resistance, but typically only at very low temperatures. Realizing ...

A new magnetic material called a p-wave magnet uses helical electron spin patterns that deflect electric current, enabling ...

Movements at the particle scale happen extremely quickly, which can make it hard to see what’s going on in there. Now, engineers at the Universities of Michigan and Regensburg have developed an ...

Scientists observed record-breaking electron mobility — seven times higher than in conventional semiconductors — with a material made from the same elements as quartz and gold. When you purchase ...

Engineers have developed an experimental strategy to control and observe the chemical reaction of a single nanocatalyst using an optical microscope -- Expected to contribute to catalyst design based ...

SAN DIEGO, CA -- Learning how to control the movement of electrons on the molecular and nanometer scales could help scientists devise small-scale circuits for a wide variety of applications, including ...

OKINAWA, JAPAN—Tiny moving particles make up everything in our physical world—including modern electronics, whose function relies on the movement of negatively-charged electrons. Physicists strive to ...
