Strange metals defy the 60-year-old understanding of electric current as a flow of discrete charges. (Nanowerk News) We all learned that electricity is caused by electrons moving in a metal. Each ...

A new nanostructure acts like a wire and switch that can, for the first time, control and direct the flow of quantum ...

Electrons in graphene can act like a perfect fluid, defying established physical laws. This finding advances both fundamental science and potential quantum technologies. For decades, quantum ...

Researchers from the Indian Institute of Science’s Department of Physics, together with researchers from Japan's National ...

Spintronics is an emerging field that leverages the spin, or the intrinsic angular momentum, of electrons. By harnessing this ...

A condition long considered to be unfavorable to electrical conduction in semiconductor materials may actually be beneficial in 2D semiconductors, according to new findings by UC Santa Barbara ...

In a strange metal (translucent box), electrons (blue marbles) lose their individuality and melt into a featureless, liquid-like stream. We all learned that electricity is caused by electrons moving ...
