Looking ahead, the research team is attempting to expand this strategy to explore metal-valence-state effects in other transition metal compounds and to develop Li–S battery systems that balance ...

The observation of a Mott transition from a metal to an insulator ... This theory relies on the notion of a perfect crystal in which the valence electrons interact with the periodic potential ...

Molecular crystals with conductivity and magnetism, due to their low impurity concentrations, provide valuable insights into valence electrons. They have helped link charge ordering to ...

Scientists have long sought to unravel the mysteries of strange metals—materials that ... moments interact with surrounding electrons. At a critical transition point, these interactions become ...
