Electrons determine everything: how chemical reactions unfold, how materials conduct electricity, how biological molecules ...

Ultrashort laser pulses—that are shorter than a millionth of a millionth of a second—have transformed fundamental science, ...

Ultrashort bursts of laser light are giving scientists a way to freeze one of chemistry’s most elusive moments, the instant ...

Scientists create a record 19.2-attosecond soft X-ray pulse, capturing electron motion in real time for the first time.

While rapidly developing technology has allowed electronic music to sound less and less mechanical over the last two decades, the patently artificial sounds that Kraftwerk introduced on albums like ...

A new study reveals how trillionth-of-a-second light pulses strongly deflect magnetization by exploiting orbital-spin ...

Researchers developed relatively powerful terahertz pulses in a continuous stream by using large-magnitude picosecond pulses in a plasma-driven, chip-based arrangement. The quest for sources of ...

Menlo Park, Calif. -- Electronic circuits that compute and store information contain millions of tiny switches that control the flow of electric current. A deeper understanding of how these tiny ...

Since then, pulse generators have developed in several dimensions. The basic generator produces one or two pulses with variable amplitude, width, and repetition rate. Pulse-pattern generators add ...

Stanford scientists have developed a soft and stretchable electronic skin that can directly talk to the brain, imitating the sensory feedback of real skin using a strategy that, if improved, could ...
