That light can be both particles and waves is one of the most illogical – but at the same time fundamental – characteristics of quantum mechanics. This is called wave-particle duality. Guilherme B ...

The experiment Linköping University’s Joakim Argillander and Daniel Spegel-Lexne were part of the team that investigated the relationship between quantum uncertainty and wave–particle duality.

these phonons couple with electrons due to the spatial overlap of electron and phonon wave functions at the interface," said lead author Xiaoqing Pan, UC Irvine Distinguished Professor of ...

Phonon quasi-particles have been monumental in microscopically understanding thermodynamics and transport properties in condensed matter for decades. Phonons have one-to-one correspondence with ...

Primarily emerging from the out-of-plane vibrations of oxygen atoms at the interface and in apical oxygens in STO, these phonons couple with electrons due to the spatial overlap of electron and phonon ...

The company clearly meant business, as today it's announced the official release of Wave, a synthesizer based on the classic PPG Wave, an '80s instrument beloved by artists such as Depeche Mode and ...

these phonons couple with electrons due to the spatial overlap of electron and phonon wave functions at the interface. This strong electron-phonon coupling provides a mechanism for the enhancement ...
