However, in a material, this emission process can also be accompanied by the emission of a phonon — a quantized lattice vibration — and so the emitted photon will be lower in energy.

To describe how matter works at infinitesimal scales, researchers designate collective behaviors with single concepts, like ...

Measuring phonon properties in nanostructures and ... techniques within a transmission electron microscope to map lattice vibrations (phonons) at atomic resolution. Focusing on stacked silicon ...

A team of UConn College of Engineering (CoE) researchers have achieved a major milestone in the field of phononics with the ...

However, the interaction mechanism between the involved electrons and lattice vibrations which accompany ... by a free ...

The direct quantification of the elctron-phonon coupling suggested that the one-dimensional lattice is soft and is almost one order of magnitude more susceptible to reorganization compared to the ...
