The IISc press release contains a sentence that is subtle but worth considering. "It is amazing that there is so much to do ...

Brain lesions beset with smoldering inflammation, and myeloid cells around their edges, define multiple sclerosis. This might be due, in part, to the flipping of electron flow within microglia, ...

Breakthrough in N 2 activation! This study unveils an electron catalysis strategy that directly converts N 2 into azo compounds under mild conditions—a game-changer for nitrogen fixation. By ...

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 ...

Scientists made a single-molecule transistor using quantum interference to control electron flow. This new design offers high on/off ratio and stability, potentially leading to smaller, faster, and ...

A light pulse redirects electrons in an ultrathin layered material, creating a stable new state without heat or damage and suggesting a low-energy route to faster electronics. (Nanowerk Spotlight) ...

University of Liverpool researchers have discovered a way to host some of the most significant properties of graphene in a three-dimensional (3D) material, potentially removing the hurdles for these ...

A condition long considered to be unfavorable to electrical conduction in semiconductor materials may actually be beneficial in 2D semiconductors, according to new findings by UC Santa Barbara ...
