- Researchers have just found evidence of “dark electrons”—electrons you can’t see using spectroscopy—in solid materials.
- By analyzing the electrons in palladium diselenide, the team was able to find states that functionally cancel each other out, blocking the electrons in those “dark states” from view.
- The scientists believe this behavior is likely to be found across many other substances as well, and could help explain why some superconductors behave in unexpected ways.
