Researchers have confirmed that the spinel compound CuIr2S4, long studied for its unusual metal-insulator transition, becomes ...

During femtosecond laser fabrication, photons are mainly absorbed by electrons, and the subsequent energy transfer from electrons to ions is of picosecond order. Hence, lattice motion is negligible ...

Researchers have proposed that a newly identified class of magnetic materials could extend the zero-resistance currents of superconductors to electron spins. Publishing their calculations in Physical ...

The European Space Agency's first Celeste satellites lift off aboard Rocket Lab's Electron rocket, testing next-generation satellite navigation in low Earth orbit.

Gallium nitride, a semiconductor that can operate at high voltages, temperatures, and frequencies, has enabled technologies from LED lighting to high-power electronics. Now Cornell researchers have ...

A newly identified mechanism reveals how proton motion can subtly yet powerfully influence triplet energy transfer in advanced materials.

Transmission electron microscopy is a general type of electron microscopy that generates an image of the internal structure of a thin sample using a beam of electrons to achieve much higher spatial ...

Using a new method, physicists found a way to 'catapult' electrons across solar materials in quadrillionths of a second.
