Scientists worked with electricity long before they understood that current ... everything from computers to phones to microwaves, the electron turned out to be interesting to just about everybody.

Indeed, the use of an electrical current to cool an object was first demonstrated by Jean-Charles Peltier in 1834 — some sixty years before the discovery of the electron. The goal in solid-state ...

TSU FF scientists have discovered that the wave function of a single electron can support special quasi—particles, plasmon polaritons. The results of the study are published in the journal Physical ...
