Whether in a smartphone or laptop, semiconductors form the basis of modern electronics and accompany us constantly in ...

Different atoms and ions possess characteristic energy levels. Like a fingerprint, they are unique for each species. Among ...

Scientists have shown that it may be possible to transform materials simply by triggering internal quantum ripples rather ...

It is remarkable that Raman spectra can, with the help of statistical inference, be used to predict cellular physiology and proteome composition. By making this possible, the work of Kamei et al. has ...

New measurements in germanium reveal how excited electrons drive lattice vibrations that govern energy flow and heating in semiconductors.

How it works: the top frequency comb is passed through a sample of interest and then into a beamsplitter. The bottom frequency comb operates at a slightly different pulse repetition frequency and is ...

Terahertz (THz) radiation underpins many next-generation technologies and advances in materials science, but current THz ...

Photothermal AFM-IR, commonly referred to as AFM-IR, is an analytical technique used to understand the chemistry of a material at the nanoscale. It combines the nanoscale spatial resolution of atomic ...
