By twisting layers of graphene, researchers discovered a unique electronic crystal where electrons freeze in place yet allow ...

“This leads to a paradoxical behaviour of the topological electronic crystal not seen in conventional Wigner crystals of the ...

A kind of umbilical cord between different quantum states can be found in some materials. Researchers at TU Wien have now ...

The way electrons hop between the carbon atoms determines the electrical properties of the graphene, which ends up being superficially similar to more common conductors like copper,” said Prof.

The discovery of topological electronic crystals in twisted graphene offers insights into electron dynamics, with potential implications for quantum computing.

Copper and other metals are conductors, which allow the free movement of electrons throughout the material. Transition metals are also excellent thermal conductors. But if you heat up a copper ...

“Several theory groups have speculated that analogues of these structures could emerge in quantized anomalous Hall systems, ...

Physicists have identified an unprecedented quantum phenomenon that allows precise manipulation of electron spin and ...

High harmonic generation is difficult with titanium and other metals, because the free electrons which make them excellent electrical conductors also interact strongly with the laser field and ...
