All the elements in the Periodic Table are made from different atoms, and the structure of these atoms results in a gamut of phenomena from radioactive decay to nuclear power. When you purchase ...

RIKEN physicists have discovered for the first time why the magnitude of the electron flow depends on direction in a special ...

Electromagnetic (EM) radiation is incredibly useful. It enables us to transmit music wirelessly over large distances, cook food in the microwave and see the world in vivid detail. However, now more ...

The exotic properties of materials can often be traced to the collective behaviours of their electrons. These behaviours give rise to different electronic phases of matter, which physicists identify ...

Excitons are pairs of bound negatively charged electrons and positively charged holes that form in semiconductors, enabling ...
