Coulomb blockade is a phenomenon in which the flow of electrons through a nanostructure, such as a quantum dot or a single-electron transistor, is restricted due to the electrostatic repulsion between ...

Researchers from Durham University and Jagiellonian University have created DNA-origami-constrained nanodisks to capture and ...

Researchers have shown for the first time that chiral phonons can transfer orbital angular momentum to electrons in non-magnetic materials, removing the need for magnets, batteries, or voltage. The ...

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

Researchers review recent advancements in electron-photon interactions in electron microscopes, furthering nonlinear integrated photonics and electron microscopy. Nonlinear optical ...

A memory chip based on stacked quantum materials. Spintronics – a technology that harnesses the electron’s magnetic quantum states to carry information – could pave the way for a new generation of ...
