UPTON, NY Electrons in a solid occupy distinct energy bands separated by gaps. Energy band gaps are an electronic no man s land, an energy range where no electrons are allowed. Now, scientists studying a compound containing iron, tellurium, and selenium have found that an energy band gap opens at a point where two allowed energy bands intersect on the material s surface. They observed this unexpected electronic behavior when they cooled the material and probed its electronic structure with laser light. Their findings, reported in the ....
