Ultrafast laser technique developed to observe electron action

Tuesday, May 13, 2014 - 18:30 in Physics & Chemistry

Physicists have developed a new ultrafast light source for observing electron motion in molecules -- made up of nuclei and electrons -- at the point before the nuclei start to move. By being able to observe what actually happens, scientists can begin to understand how an electron interacts with other electrons, which may help improve the efficiency of solar cells.
