Is there less?


When in the 1980s it was possible to measure the charge of a single electron it was considered to be the smallest basic unit of this electric. But in 1982 physicist Robert Laughlin launched a simple way to explain complex interactions between electrons.

According to their theory, electrons act as fictitious particles without interaction and their charge is equivalent to the odd fractions of the electron's electric charge denominator (1/3, 1/5, 1/7...).


Now, researchers at the Weizmann Institute have measured the equivalent of one-fifth of the single-electron load (the conductance of the electrical system was 2/5 of quantum conductance) and have proven that theory. 1.
