Physicists have created the world’s fastest microscope, and it’s so quick that it can spot electrons in motion. The new device, a newer version of a transmission electron microscope, captures images ...

Physicists are developing quantum microscopy which enables them for the first time to record the movement of electrons at the atomic level with both extremely high spatial and temporal resolution.

A team of researchers from the University of Arizona have penned a new study detailing the creation of a microscope capable of capturing the speed of a electron. The new research has been published in ...

In quantum mechanics, particles such as electrons act like waves and can even interfere with themselves—a striking and ...

A remarkable consequence of quantum mechanics is that electrons can display interference effects. This interference is similar to waves interacting in the ocean or the electromagnetic waves that carry ...

A hidden quantum geometry that distorts electron paths has finally been observed in real materials. This “quantum metric,” ...

Electrons oscillate around the nucleus of an atom on extremely short timescales, typically completing a cycle in just a few hundred attoseconds (one attosecond is a quintillionth of a second). Because ...

Spurned electrons throw light on electronic noise at very small length scales. If you could freeze the electrons and examine the density as a function of position along a wire, you would find that the ...
