In perovskite solar cells, this constitutes a particular challenge, as they are not homogeneous but consist of many small grains that are only hundreds of nanometers (a billionth of a meter) in size.

The way to boost electron transfer in grid-scale batteries is different than researchers had believed, a new study from the University of Michigan has shown.

SYDNEY, Sept. 27 (UPI) -- Australian researchers say they've made a major step toward a working quantum computer by developing a single-electron "reader." Quantum computers promise huge increases ...

WASHINGTON — A Rocket Lab Electron rocket placed seven smallsats for three customers into orbit July 17 on a launch that also brought the company a step closer to reusing the rocket’s booster.

For a single electron, that could be the spin orientation (“up” or “down”). So you want to be able to capture single electrons. There are other reasons, but that is a big one.
