The makings of a Hund’s metal
In atomic physics, Hund’s rules refers to a set of guidelines which are used to determine the term symbol that corresponds to the ground state of a multi-electron atom. The concept of a ‘Hund’s metal’ has arisen from the realization that the interactions that...
Surfing water molecules could hold the key to fast and controllable water transport
A radical new mechanism for the motion of adsorbates across the surfaces of layered materials has emerged from computer simulations of water nanodroplets on graphene. The simulations reveal that the adsorbates “surf” across the surface whilst being carried by the...
