For the first time, a team at BESSY II has succeeded in demonstrating the one-dimensional electronic properties of a material ...

High-order harmonic generation (HHG) provides a main route to generate attosecond (10-18 s) pulses, which have been considered “the world’s fastest film camera” for imaging the movement of electrons.

Scientists have decoded the electronic structure of water, opening up new perspectives for technological and environmental applications. There is no doubt that water is significant. Without it, life ...

Yale scientists have come one step closer to understanding the behavior of electrons and have found surprising results. Coulomb’s law — a law governing electrical force between charged objects — as it ...

When light hits solar cells, so-called electron-hole pairs are created: the electrons are excited and can move almost freely in the material—i.e. to generate electricity. The electrons will leave ...

Fusion is among the most environmentally friendly sources of energy. There are no CO 2 or other harmful atmospheric emissions from the fusion process, which means that fusion does not contribute to ...

Graphene, which is comprised of a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice, is a widely used material ...

A new method turns noise into valuable data to enhance understanding of chemical reactions and material properties with unprecedented detail at the atomic level. The results of this research are now ...
