Collective electron motion in condensed matter typically unfolds on a sub-femtosecond timescale. The well-defined electric field evolution of intense, phase-stable few-cycle laser pulses provides an ...

A new method using a combination of strong and weak electric fields to change nanoparticle speed and direction could improve ...

In the home, the lab and the factory, electric fields control technologies such as Kindle displays, medical diagnostic tests and devices that purify cancer drugs. In an electric field, anything with ...

A new technique could one day provide the most precise measurement yet of the roundness of an electron, scientists say. That measurement, in turn, could help scientists test extensions of the standard ...

Monitoring precession: The researchers measured the electron electric dipole moment in hafnium fluoride ions confined within an ion trap. (Courtesy: Casey Cass/University of Colorado) One way to look ...
