Scientists at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Stanford University have made the first direct measurements, and by far the most precise ones, of how electrons move ...

A new study published in Nature Physics introduces a theory of electron-phonon coupling that is affected by the quantum geometry of the electronic wavefunctions. The movement of electrons in a lattice ...

On the move: strontium atoms in an atomic clock. (Courtesy: Steven Burrows and Ye Group/JILA) An optical atomic clock has been used by physicists in the US to study the effects of spin–orbit coupling.

Rice University researchers have uncovered a new mechanism through which matter enables ultrastrong coupling between different light modes. They designed a special 3D cavity that can trap light, ...
