In metals, electrons are normally expected to be diffusive in their movement, operating as individual particles – in other words, they don't gain momentum as a group.
In a new study, scientists have now discovered a type of metal where electrons actually do flow in a fluid-like way – like water in a pipe – by interacting with quasiparticles called phonons, which emerge from vibrations in a crystal structure.

Sound + electricity. Sound + light. Sound plus magnetics. Some S:TNG and biblical, more like prebiblical levels of tech here.

Pretty sick imo.
