Electron beams have transcended their traditional roles in imaging and lithography to become vital platforms for exploring fundamental quantum phenomena. Central to recent advances is the manipulation ...

The orbital angular momentum of electrons has long been considered a minor physical phenomenon, suppressed in most crystals and largely overlooked. Scientists have now discovered that in certain ...

Electrons have three intrinsic properties: spin, charge and orbital angular momentum. Researchers have long studied how to use spin to more efficiently create an electrical current. But the field of ...

Physicists have proposed a way to extract the internal quantum states of electron wave packets by analyzing how those packets ...

Electrons are proficient little magicians. They seem to flit about an atom without tracing a particular path, they frequently appear to be in two places at once, and their behavior in silicon ...
