In a paper published Jan. 22 in Nature, the team describes how electrons in devices made, in part, of the new material can become solid, or form crystals, by changing the voltage applied to the ...

The scientists determined the three-dimensional structure of the protein and found that there are positively charged calcium ions buried inside it, very near the place where the electrons are stored.

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 ...

A new method using spiraling electron beams allows scientists to directly observe electrons in motion, unlocking new insights into quantum processes and molecular behavior. Credit: SciTechDaily.com ...

Since Rb + is one of the largest cations (second only to the cesium ion), crystalline Rb-containing oxides are expected to have a larger lattice and free volumes, potentially leading to lower ...

So far as we know, the idea of a quantised spinning of the electron was put forward for the first time by A. K. Compton (Journ. Frankl. Inst., Aug. 1921, p. 145), who pointed out the possible ...

New atomic clocks are more accurate than those used to define the second, suggesting the definition might need to change ...

For over a century, scientists have studied how light ejects electrons from atoms, but this research takes it a step further—by measuring not just their speed but their full quantum state. Using ...
