Coulomb blockade is a phenomenon in which the flow of electrons through a nanostructure, such as a quantum dot or a single-electron transistor, is restricted due to the electrostatic repulsion between ...

NYU’s Center for Quantum Information Physics co-led a study that manipulated germanium, a mineral used in computer chips, to ...

A research team affiliated with UNIST has made a significant breakthrough in overcoming one of the most persistent challenges ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – A delicate balance of electrons flowing through the photosynthetic machinery is essential to a plant’s ability to turn sunlight into energy and its survival. Understanding the ...

The film explains the concept of electrons and their role in electric circuits. It describes how electric current is the flow of electric charges, primarily electrons, which cannot be seen but can be ...

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 ...

Magnetic reconnection, in which magnetic field lines break and reconnect to change their topology, occurs throughout the universe. The essential feature of reconnection is that it energizes plasma ...

Can electricity behave like water? For the first time, "electron whirlpools" have been discovered by MIT researchers. According to News Atlas, when electricity moves as a fluid, strange behavior ...

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 ...

Scientists know that a particular protein is responsible for regulating gene expression of photosystems in response to perturbations in photosynthetic electron flow, but how it senses the electrons ...
