Researchers Link Coherence to Electrical Current’s Self-Response

Electrical conduction typically assumes current simply responds to applied voltage, but what if internal electronic structure *remembered* past currents. This work demonstrates that electrical transport changes due to internal coherence only when it directly influences the flow itself. By modelling this feedback loop, predictions emerge about damping rates and frequencies offering measurable consequences beyond simple correlations with conductivity.
A method describes how internal electronic coherence influences electrical transport, connecting orbital dynamics with electromagnetic responses. Detailing feedback between an internal state and physical current creates a reduced description of complex interactions within materials. This approach enables predictions about conductivity based on changes in coherence damping, offering new tests beyond standard spectral fitting methods. The work explains that internal electronic coherence affects electrical conduction only when directly influencing current flow. Unlike previous studies…
