Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University Highlights Excitons are excited particles that form when negatively charged electrons bind to positively charged holes Researchers have now used cutting-edge technology to capture the first ever image of the electron inside of an exciton The technique uses extreme ultraviolet light to break excitons apart and kick the electrons into the vacuum of an electron microscope By measuring the angle at which the electrons are ejected from the material, the research team determined how the electrons and holes orbit each other in an excito...

April 21, 2021 Scientists copy the first image of the orbit of an electron inside an exitone by Jake Pearson Image: Very small, strange quantum concepts apply in physics. Electrons act as particles and waves, so it is impossible to know position and view And more Attribution: OIST For the first time in the world, researchers at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology’s Graduate University (OIST) have copied an image showing the internal orbits or spatial distribution of particles in an exitone – a goal that scientists have avoided for over a century. ...
