New research sheds light on the nature of ‘unidentified electron objects’ - a mysterious class of objects that exists in superfluid helium at low temperature.
Researchers have been able to tune ‘coherence’ in organic nanostructures due to the surprise discovery of wavelike electrons in organic materials, revealing the key to generating “long-lived charges” in organic solar cells - material that could revolutionise solar energy.
