When laser flashes hit matter, electrons are knocked off their orbits around the atomic nuclei. This can generate extremely ...

The emission of photons by excited nuclei has been explored for timekeeping and sensing, but nuclear processes that eject electrons offer practical advantages. Electrons in atoms can exist only in ...

The international research team found that excited electrons (at the centre of the image) can straighten out the skewed crystal lattice of perovskite nanocrystals. Many a scientific and technical ...

For the first time, researchers show light pulses can create electrons at specific sites in graphene, uncovered through simulations of laser effects. (Nanowerk News) A research team in Kiel has ...

New measurements in germanium reveal how excited electrons drive lattice vibrations that govern energy flow and heating in semiconductors. (Nanowerk News) Whether in a smartphone or laptop, ...
