«One way to know is by understanding how electrons move around in these materials so we can develop new ways of manipulating them — for example, with light instead of electrical current as conventional computers do.»

Atoms are composed of electrons moving around a central nucleus they are bound to.

Electrons can only move around in the high - energy conduction band.

APDs detect photons because when a photon strikes the top surface of the chip, its energy knocks an electron into an energy level in which it can move around freely.

The challenge for the Duke team was to find the right shapes and dimensions for the metal circuitry on the metamaterials so they could precisely dictate how the electrons move around, which in turn controls how the incoming radiation is bent.

Some of the photons bounced off electrons that were being moved around by gravitational waves that had been quantum - mechanically created during inflation and had become classical objects.

Closer to home, I suppose I left out the sun, which of course, itself is mostly plasma, because [the] high - temperature center of the sun is 15 million degrees, and so that is plenty hot enough to separate the electrons and the protons and to make sure that they move around freely inside the center of the sun.

That electron can then move around the crystal freely, and we can get a current.

The easier that electrons can move around in a solar cell material, the more efficient that material will be at converting photons, particles of light, into electricity.
