Electrons in a magnetic field can display striking behaviors, from the formation of discrete energy levels to the quantum Hall effect. These discoveries have shaped our understanding of quantum materials and topological phases ...
A new study addresses a foundational problem in the theory of driven quantum matter by extending the St艡eda formula to non-equilibrium regimes. It demonstrates that a superficially trivial "sum of zeros" encodes a universal, ...
Magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (MATBG) is a material created by stacking two sheets of graphene onto each other, with a small twist angle of about 1.1掳. At this "magic angle," electrons move very slowly, which can ...
Nucleons, which include protons and neutrons, are the composite particles that make up atomic nuclei. While these particles have been widely studied in the past, their internal structure has not yet been fully elucidated.
RIKEN physicists have created the first thin films featuring a special combination of electrical and topological properties. This demonstration could help to realize new forms of electronics that are highly energy efficient.
A team of researchers has discovered how a little-known type of symmetry in quantum materials, called nonsymmorphic symmetry, governs the way these materials interact with intense laser light.
A team of scientists has revealed how a single quantum device can accurately measure the three fundamental units of electricity鈥攖he ampere (unit of electrical current), the volt (unit of electrical potential) and the ohm ...
Topological spin textures, spatially organized patterns linked to the intrinsic angular momentum of particles, have proved to be highly advantageous for the development of spintronics and quantum technologies. One of the ...
Scientists have turned a longstanding challenge in electronics鈥攎aterial defects鈥攊nto a quantum-enhanced solution, paving the way for new-generation ultra-low-power spintronic devices. Spintronics, short for "spin electronics," ...
Quantum computers have the potential to solve problems far beyond the reach of today's fastest supercomputers. But today's machines are notoriously fragile. The quantum bits, or "qubits," that store and process information ...
