For more than a century, the well-known 18-electron rule has guided the field of organometallic chemistry. Now, researchers at Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST), in collaboration with ...

Electrons play many roles in solid materials. When they are weakly bound and able to travel—i.e., mobile—they can enable ...

Air-channel transistors can exhibit ballistic transport and immunity from carrier scattering if the channel distance is smaller than the mean free path (MFP) of electrons in an ambient environment.

Researchers from the University of Hong Kong studying the structure of 2D materials have predicted new types of phase transitions that have yet to be seen in experiments ...

In this article, we investigate the impact of hard-switching on the dynamic ON-resistance (RON) in the AlGaN/GaN high-electron mobility transistors (HEMTs). The pulsed measurements were taken on a set ...

The nature of the electronic-structure of polyenes, their delocalization features, and potential diradicaloid characters constitute a fundamental problem in chemistry. To address this problem, we used ...

It’s the interactions between phonons and electrons that cause electrons to slow down, or their momentum to relax. It’s the reason why electrical resistance of conductors decreases at a lower ...

Excess electrons (EEs), transient anionic species pivotal in radiation chemistry, catalysis, and optoelectronics, have long been stabilized via solvent interactions such as hydrogen bonding in water ...

This concept isn’t just futuristic—it carries real-world relevance. Companies might begin to hedge not only currency risk but also energy risk. Imagine supermarkets trading kilowatt-hours or data ...
