Molecular crystals with conductivity and magnetism, due to their low impurity concentrations, provide valuable insights into ...

The distribution of outermost shell electrons, known as valence electrons, of organic molecules was experimentally observed ...

Conversely, for negative μ 0 >−2h, the current flows within the valence band of the right valley and nearly 100% spin-polarization is now achieved with up-spin. The case discussed here is the ...

The widely used ‘silicon-on-insulator’ (SOI) system consists of a layer of single-crystalline silicon supported on a silicon dioxide substrate. When this silicon layer (the template layer) is ...

Zinc traditionally has a valence of two, meaning two electrons take part in the element's chemical reaction. A new article shows that the chemistry of zinc can be fundamentally changed, making it ...

Electrons and other charge carriers can move faster in germanium tin than in silicon or germanium, ... SiGe alloys, enabling an all-group IV optoelectronic semiconductor platform that can be ...

As the interactions between atoms are governed by the valence electrons, the findings shine light on the fundamental nature of chemical bonds, with implications for pharmacy and chemical engineering.

The distribution of outermost shell electrons, known as valence electrons, of organic molecules was observed for the first time by a team led by Nagoya University in Japan. As the interactions ...
