In thinner layers, polarons localize charge carriers, leading to reduced charge carrier mobility. This phenomenon is crucial for designing modern devices, which are continually becoming smaller and rely on thinner materials for functionality. https://lnkd.in/gCc75Hdd #nanotechnology #electronics #devices #hardware

It has been discovered that quantum entanglement in the proton is maximal, and that its main sources are constantly ‘boiling’ seas of virtual gluons and quarks. In the article just published, this new formalism has already become so universal that it correctly reproduces, for the first time, all currently available experimental data. https://lnkd.in/ggkdcfBS

An international research team led by the University of Göttingen is helping to find answers to questions like this with a new technique. For the first time, the formation of tiny, difficult-to-detect particles – known as dark excitons – can be tracked precisely in time and space. These invisible carriers of energy will play a key role in future solar cells, LEDs and detectors. The results were published in Nature Photonics. https://lnkd.in/gvw22Dhk
