Organic compounds exhibit a rich interplay between their electronic structure and light-matter interactions, a relationship that is fundamentally influenced by their dipole moments. The dipole moment, ...

Do electrons have a fourth property in addition to mass, charge and spin, as popular physics theories such as supersymmetry predict? Researchers from Germany, the Czech Republic and the United States ...

Incompatible moments A spinning charge (left) acts like a loop of current to produce a magnetic dipole moment (blue arrow). Distorting the electron's charge distribution (middle) produces an electric ...

Here, we introduce the first experimental proof of coherent oscillation and coupling of photoswitchable molecules embedded randomly in a polymeric matrix and acting cooperatively upon illumination ...
