Researchers at MIT have observed “electron whirlpools” for the first time. The bizarre behavior arises when electricity flows as a fluid, which could make for more efficient electronics. Like water, ...

Researchers show hafnium stannide can host graphene-like electron flow in a robust 3D structure, paving the way for scalable ...

These bacteria don’t eat food or breathe air like we do. All they need is to complete a circuit; that’s enough for them to live.

A material cooled near absolute zero produced an electrical signal that physics said should not exist, revealing a new kind ...

A light pulse redirects electrons in an ultrathin layered material, creating a stable new state without heat or damage and suggesting a low-energy route to faster electronics. (Nanowerk Spotlight) ...

Bromine-based flow batteries operate through the redox reaction between bromide ions and elemental bromine, offering advantages such as abundant resources, high redox potential, and good solubility.

Researchers develop a method to design and control the path of electron flow in a polycrystalline material. Osaka Prefecture University develops a method to design and control the path of electron ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – A delicate balance of electrons flowing through the photosynthetic machinery is essential to a plant’s ability to turn sunlight into energy and its survival. Understanding the ...

Physicists have now observed electron whirlpools. Theorists have long predicted electrons should exhibit this hallmark of fluid flow; the findings could inform the design of more efficient electronics ...
