An experiment with a carbon material in a magnetic field has revealed a novel way for electrons to move, which doesn't fully ...

Scientists at the University of East Anglia have uncovered a hidden property of light that allows it to twist, spin and ...

For the first time, scientists have measured the 'shape' of an electron in solids, opening the door to advances in quantum ...

A new study reveals an unexpected pathway in catalytic systems, where oxygen does not remain confined to surfaces but can ...

Functional coatings improve polymer surfaces by adding barrier protection, chemical resistance, hydrophobicity, conductivity, ...

Researchers have discovered a hidden quantum geometry inside materials that subtly steers electrons, echoing how gravity warps light in space. Once thought to exist only on paper, this effect has now ...
