Scientists have developed a new method that can help them probe inside atom’s nucleus. Developed by researchers at MIT, the ...

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 ...

Physicists at MIT have developed a new way to probe inside an atom's nucleus, using the atom's own electrons as "messengers" ...

Electrons in graphene just broke their own sound barrier. Scientists created a controllable electronic shockwave inside a ...

Scientists at Yokohama National University, in collaboration with RIKEN and other institutions in Japan and Korea, have made ...

Behold, the world's fastest microscope: it works at such an astounding speed that it's the first-ever device capable of capturing a clear image of moving electrons. This is a potentially ...

The new instrument could lead to better materials for quantum computers and solar cells. Physicist Edoardo Baldini (left) and Sarah Everett, director of global impact and research at Tito’s Handmade ...

Real-time modeling of optical responses in nanostructures using RT-TDDFT helps interpret, understand and guide next-generation applications in science and technology. A research team from the ...

A research team in Kiel has demonstrated a previously unknown effect in graphene—a single layer of carbon atoms whose discovery earned the 2010 Nobel Prize. For years, graphene has been seen as a ...

Kristian Camilleri is an associate professor of history and philosophy of science at the University of Melbourne, Australia, and author of Heisenberg and the Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics. In ...

The interactions in photovoltaic materials that convert light into electricity happens in femtoseconds. How fast is that? One femtosecond is a quadrillionth of a second­­. To put that in perspective, ...
