Nanoscale electron transfer (ET) in solids is fundamental to the development of multifunctional materials. However, ET in solids is not yet clearly understood. Now, researchers achieved a direct ...

This course provides and overview of solid state physics including free electron theory, phonons, energy bands, charge transport, semiconductors, optical properties, dielectric properties, ...

"God does not play dice." This famous remark by Albert Einstein critiqued the probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics. Paradoxically, his theory of relativity has become an essential tool for ...

Scientists have discovered a method to switch ultra-stable ferroaxial materials using circular terahertz light, paving the way for next-generation, non-volatile data storage technologies. Modern life ...

A NUMBER of years ago, a general theory of electronic motion in metals was developed by F. Bloch 1 and others, using the methods of quantum mechanics. Many of the results of this general theory can be ...
