In this diagram the upper-left end of the platinum film (shown in light blue) is hotter than the lower-right end. This causes electrons to flow from hot to cold. The spin Nernst effect is shown as ...

Electric currents can be steered by coupling the flow of electrons and ions in films of gold nanoparticles coated with ionic ligands. The co-existence of ionic flow and electron flow has been observed ...

Table 1 Properties of 2DEG samples, measured in a Hall bar configuration. Sample A was grown by the commercial grower IQE. Sample B was grown by H. Shtrikman. Sample C was grown by L. N. Pfeiffer and ...

A solid material that conducts electricity perfectly at certain temperatures may also qualify as an almost perfectly flowing liquid. If the result is confirmed, the superconducting material would ...

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 ...

In graphene, electrons move in strange ways. Their unusual and fluid-like behavior was observed by scientists at the National Graphene Institute, leading to a new wave of studies related to the ...

(NewsNation) — Physicists at MIT have found a way to observe electrons in some exotic materials that appear to flow without resistance. The discovery could lead to the invention of superefficient ...

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 ...

Since electrons are so small and one electron will not have much of an effect anywhere, it is more useful to refer to packages of electrons. One coulomb of charge is a package equivalent to ...
