A new nanostructure acts like a wire and switch that can, for the first time, control and direct the flow of quantum ...

Engineers at the University of Michigan have created a breakthrough device that can control the flow of excitons—tiny bundles ...

Most people have a phone charger plugged in next to their bed, which they never bother to switch off at the wall - but is that risky to do?

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 ...

Researchers from Japan have discovered a unique Hall effect resulting from deflection of electrons due to "in-plane ...

(Santa Barbara, Calif.) — A condition long considered to be unfavorable to electrical conduction in semiconductor materials may actually be beneficial in 2D semiconductors, according to new findings ...

Electrons in graphene can act like a perfect fluid, defying established physical laws. This finding advances both fundamental science and potential quantum technologies. For decades, quantum ...

In a strange metal (translucent box), electrons (blue marbles) lose their individuality and melt into a featureless, liquid-like stream. We all learned that electricity is caused by electrons moving ...
