As the Doppler cooling lowered the particles' temperatures to millikelvin levels, the ions arranged themselves into a pseudo-crystalline structure, the Coulomb crystal, held in place by the ...

For the first time, scientists have captured how complex molecules change shape when exposed to UV light—an ultra-fast ...

Coulomb blockade is a phenomenon in which the flow of electrons through a nanostructure, such as a quantum dot or a single-electron transistor, is restricted due to the electrostatic repulsion between ...
