A new platform for engineering chiral electron pathways offers potential fresh insights into a quantum phenomenon discovered by chemists—and exemplifies how the second quantum revolution is fostering ...

NbRe may be a long-sought triplet superconductor, offering zero-resistance spin transport and major advances in quantum ...

The crystal structure of these atomically thin materials makes them extremely sensitive to mechanical strain – tiny stretches or compressions of the atomic lattice. In principle, this strain ...

Flowing electricity through materials is a simple way to understand their properties. Measurements of ultraclean SrVO3 shown on the left schematically in the Hall bar device and the electron ...

The study of quantum mechanics in conjunction with geometric effects in magnetic fields represents a rapidly evolving domain that bridges fundamental physics and emerging technologies. The intricate ...

Quantum physics often reveals phenomena that defy common sense. A new theory of quantum scarring deepens our understanding of the connection between the quantum world and classical mechanics, sheds ...

(Phys.org)—Physicists have proposed what they believe to be the first method to control the transport of energy at the level of single energy quanta (which are mostly phonons). They show that it's ...
