Heat drives electron orbital currents, revealing first experimental evidence of orbital Nernst effect

Researchers at National Taiwan University (NTU) have reported the first experimental evidence of heat-current-driven transverse accumulation of electrons' orbital angular momentum, a phenomenon known as the orbital Nernst effect. The study was recently published in Nature Communications.
