One intriguing method that could be used to form the qubits needed for quantum computers involves electrons hovering above liquid helium. But it wasn't clear how data in this form could be read easily ...

During chemical reactions, atoms in the reacting substances break their bonds and re-arrange, forming different chemical products. This process entails the movement of both electrons (i.e., negatively ...

A potential breakthrough from Japan may address one of the key obstacles facing this ...

Automatically numbering and weighting electronic states instead of taking averages improves estimates of target molecular orbitals.

Researchers from the labs of Professors Vinayak Dravid and Omar Farha developed a high-resolution approach to map ...

Electron microscopy (EM) has become an indispensable tool for investigating the nanoscale structure of a large range of materials, across physical and life sciences. It is vital for characterisation ...

What Is Electron Beam Lithography? Electron beam lithography (EBL) is a technique for creating high-resolution patterns on a semiconductor substrate by directing a beam of electrons to selectively ...
