In some solid materials under specific conditions, mutual Coulomb interactions shape electrons into many-body correlated states, such as Wigner crystals, which are essentially solids made of electrons ...

"When Arp 220 is observed as a whole, it's one of the best places in the universe for astronomers to study how gravity, star formation, and powerful winds work together with strong magnetic fields to ...

When temperatures get close to 0°, any moisture in the atmosphere can turn into little tiny ice crystals called diamond dust. You will often see the ice crystals floating in the air, almost resembling ...

A new study suggests that crystal defects in diamond may hold the key to scalable quantum interconnects. Connecting large numbers of quantum bits (qubits) into a working technology remains one of the ...

The LED Materials Market is experiencing robust expansion driven by escalating adoption of energy-efficient lighting ...

Light can do more than illuminate a material. In some cases, it can temporarily change how electrons move through it. That ...

Researchers at Kumamoto University have discovered that a purely inorganic crystal grown from water solution can emit circularly polarized light, a special form of light whose "handedness" ...

Photoplethysmography (PPG) is an optical sensing technique that measures blood volume changes and underpins devices ranging from hospital-grade pulse oximeters to consumer wearables that track heart ...
