As an elementary type of collective excitation, plasmon has been found to dominate the optical properties of metals. The collective behavior of electrons in plasmons reflects the important difference ...

Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have succeeded in detecting laser-assisted electron scattering (LAES) using circularly polarized light for the first time. The use of circularly ...

Why does lead behave so differently from every other atomic nucleus when struck by electrons? A team of physicists at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) has taken an important step toward ...

What is Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy? Electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) is a powerful analytical technique used to study the chemical composition, electronic structure, and local bonding ...

The high-energy radiation that carries orbit angular momentum has become an extremely important tool to investigate the angular momentum-related physics in the microworld. But the generation and ...

What is Small-Angle X-ray Scattering? Small-Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) is a powerful analytical technique used to study the structural properties of materials at the nanoscale. It involves the ...
