In Brief:
- Researchers have demonstrated how electrons travel on different elliptical paths by using a quantum crystal kept at low temperatures.
- The discovery could lead to a new class of microchips far beyond the capabilities of today’s silicon chips.
New developments from Princeton University and the University of Texas-Austin have revealed odd behavior in electrons that could lay the foundation for a new generation of faster microchips, according to a study published in Science.
Electronic systems react in different ways depending on surfaces they’re exposed to, and the study demonstrated when electrons on crystal bismuth are kept at very low temperatures, they spontaneously travel in identical elliptical paths.
