A study showing how electrons flow around sharp bends, such as those found in integrated circuits, has the potential to improve how these circuits, commonly used in electronic and optoelectronic ...

If you want an electrical current to flow around a normal metal ring you have to supply enough energy to overcome the metal’s resistance – right? Not always, according to physicists in the US and ...

Physicists have directly measured, for the first time at nanometer resolution, the fluid-like flow of electrons in graphene. The results have applications in developing new, low-resistance ...

Scientists at the National Graphene Institute have shown that electrons — the particles responsible for electricity — flow like a liquid in graphene.

The most obvious advantage of superconductors – materials that offer no electrical resistance to the flow of electrons – in electronic circuits is that they don’t produce any wasteful heating, which ...

Researchers from the Indian Institute of Science’s Department of Physics, together with researchers from Japan's National ...

Perfect fluid of electrons may flow inside superconductor Research could help scientists understand materials that conduct electricity without resistance ...

A recently developed theory, however, suggests that under certain conditions, a coupled electron–phonon liquid can form in which the electrons transition from a diffusive (particle-like) flow to a ...

So if electrons aren’t moving at the speed of light, how is it we make all kinds of circuits and antennas that rely on the speed of light?

It must allow solely for the flow of electrons and must retain the active chemicals. This is critical to prevent short-circuits and a self-discharge.
