What is a Single-Electron Transistor? A single-electron transistor (SET) is a nanoscale electronic device that allows the precise control of individual electrons. Unlike conventional transistors that ...

Physicists at the University of Wisconsin-Madison have directly measured the fluid-like flow of electrons in graphene at nanometer resolution for the first time. The results appear in the journal ...

For years, scientists have known that phonons (vibrations of atoms) carry heat through solids. However, when two different materials come in contact, like in a computer chip, these vibrations often ...
