Electric vehicle charging in just six minutes?

Electron spin: The game changer for faster charging, higher capacity batteries

27-Jun-2023 - Charging an electric vehicle usually takes about 10 hours or longer, and even with fast-charging methods, it takes at least 30 minutes. That is assuming there is an available spot at a charging station. If we could charge electric vehicles as quickly as refueling gasoline-powered cars, it could ...

Snapshots from the quantum world

A research collaboration can read out optically previously indistinguishable spin states by using a newly developed spectroscopy method

05-Jan-2022 - The alternation between singlet and triplet states of electron pairs in charge-separated states plays an important role in nature. Presumably, even the compass of migratory birds can be explained by the influence of the geomagnetic field on the magnetic interplay between these two spin states. ...
