When quantum spins interact, they can produce collective behaviors that defy long-standing expectations. Researchers have now shown that the Kondo effect behaves very differently depending on spin ...

What if you could create new materials just by shining a light at them? To most, this sounds like science fiction or alchemy, ...

Scientists are learning how to temporarily reshape materials by nudging their internal quantum rhythms instead of blasting ...

Scientists from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have discovered that atomic-scale substitutional dopants in ultra-thin two-dimensional (2D) materials can act as stable quantum systems ...

Despite working in quantum computing for decades, Akira Furusawa, a professor at the University of Tokyo in Japan, has no idea what the quantum-computer era will look like. “It’s going to transform ...

At 3.3 billion light-years across, the ring may challenge the “cosmological principle” that the universe looks uniform at sufficiently large scales.
