This research topic explores the complex interactions that occur when metals are exposed to high electric fields. Under such conditions, metal surfaces may emit electrons—a process known as field ...

Strong laser fields were supposed to be the cleanest way to watch electrons move, yet the latest experiments show that the vacuum itself can quietly reshape what those fields do. By flooding matter ...

Shrinking chips are hitting a wall. Traditional transistors, the workhorses of modern electronics, are struggling to switch faster without guzzling power. A rival design, the tunnel field-effect ...
