Chirality—the property of an object that is distinct from its mirror image—has long captivated scientists across biology, ...

Scientists have developed a method for storing quantum information in a single dimension, thereby reducing decoherence, using chromium sulfide bromide.

Schrödinger suggested that until the box is opened and observed, the cat is considered both alive and dead at the same time. This experiment illustrates a quantum state in which particles can ...

Dual topological phases have been discovered in an intrinsic monolayer crystal, a finding that reveals new and unique rule-bending properties in a quantum material, an international team of scientists ...

Our work helps us to understand this process at a very fundamental level, particularly in new or emerging materials." The discovery of unexpected and entirely new quantum behaviors in one ...

The study, published in Nature Materials, comes at a time of growing global interest in quantum materials that redefine the boundaries between magnetism, conductivity, and quantum coherence. “We ...

At EPFL, you get a metamaterial, an engineered material that exhibits exotic ... energy from waves for instance." In quantum mechanics, the cat is both dead and alive inside of the box until ...

The search and manipulation of novel properties emerging from the quantum nature of matter could lead to next-generation electronics and quantum computers. But finding or designing materials that can ...

Now, researchers at Princeton University have uncovered a hidden chiral quantum state in a material previously thought to be non-chiral. The finding sheds light on an intense debate within the ...
