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 ...

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

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 ...

Terahertz (THz) radiation, which occupies the frequency band between microwaves and infrared light, is essential in many next ...

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 ...

Exploring the frontiers of chemistry and physics, materials science pushes the boundaries of what can be achieved. The field is witnessing significant scientific breakthroughs, especially in areas ...

At first glance, physics and food science appear to belong to different worlds. Physics is often seen as abstract, mathematical and distant from daily life, while food science feels immediate, ...
