An international team of researchers has measured how fast an electron races through the atomic layers of a crystal lattice. The physicists used an extremely short laser pulse to time the speed: ...

In a paper published in National Science Review, an international team of scientists report an electron injection strategy for modulating the Mo 4d-orbital splitting manner and first fabricate a ...

The physicists used an extremely short laser pulse to time the speed: According to their measurements, the electron needs 40 attoseconds to pass through one layer of magnesium atoms. One attosecond is ...
