We present a theoretical and experimental study of a plasmonic nanoelectrode architecture that is able to inject bunches of hot electrons into an aqueous environment. In this approach, electrons are ...

Glimpses of the ultrafast world of electrons are changing scientists’ vision of the inner workings of atoms and molecules. The 2023 Nobel Prize in physics goes to three physicists who illuminated this ...

The question of what protons or neutrons are made up of has an apparently simple answer: quarks and gluons. However, when it ...

Researchers at NPL have reported a novel high-speed charge sensing method for ballistic electrons, a potentially useful technique in the fields of electron quantum optics, quantum electrical metrology ...

Researchers are investigating novel ways by which electrons are knocked out of matter. Their research could have implications for radiation therapy. Researchers at Japan's Tohoku University are ...

The only reason humans know about the existence of consciousness — the phenomenon of having subjective feelings and experiences — is because we have feelings and experiences. But despite centuries of ...
