When materials become just one atom thick, melting no longer follows the familiar rules. Instead of jumping straight from solid to liquid, an unusual in-between state emerges, where atomic positions ...

Researchers have demonstrated that quantum entanglement can link atoms across space to improve measurement accuracy. By ...

For the first time, physicists have generated and observed stable bright matter-wave solitons with attractive interactions ...

A material cooled near absolute zero produced an electrical signal that physics said should not exist, revealing a new kind ...

Scientists demonstrate Floquet effects using excitons instead of photons, marking a major breakthrough in imbibing materials ...

Using short laser pulses, researchers have imaged the exact moment an ammonia molecule bends and sheds a hydrogen atom.

During chemical reactions, atoms in the reacting substances break their bonds and re-arrange, forming different chemical ...

Delivering a lecture in 1959, theoretical physicist, Richard Feynman, wondered out loud: “What would the properties of materials be if we could really arrange the atoms the way we want them?” The ...

Atoms that occur in nature interact with the electromagnetic field at a single point, allowing scientists to make certain assumptions about energy levels with point-like references. However, ...
