Researchers have experimentally caused electrons to bend in bilayer graphene with the use of light. The way electrons flow in materials determine its electronic properties. For example, when a voltage ...

Scientists have observed a quantum fluid of electrons in graphene for the first time, showing near-perfect fluid behaviour and shedding light on a quantum physics puzzle. In a collaborative effort, ...

Scientists have harnessed an imaging technique to create a 3-D visualization of electrons moving at nearly light speed on and in a futuristic material that could replace silicon in electronic devices ...

On the move: time sequence of the electron distribution of the molecule 1,3-cyclohexadiene after it is excited by a light pulse. (Courtesy: SLAC) Scientists in the US and UK are the first to observe ...

University of British Columbia (UBC) scientists have demonstrated a reversible way to switch the topological state of a ...

I first learned of this area of research as a graduate student in physical chemistry. My doctoral adviser’s group had a project dedicated to studying chemical reactions with attosecond pulses. Before ...

Living life in the fast lane can be tremendously exciting, giving us the 'time of our lives' but how long does it really last? Experiments have answered this question for a bunch of electrons ...
