Luttinger’s theorem at the core of topological matter
Luttinger’s theorem relates a Fermi liquid’s particle density to the volume of its Fermi surface. Credit: Wikimedia Commons, Public Domain In 1960, Joaquin Luttinger introduced a universal statement that relates…
A novel microscope operates on the quantum state of single electrons
Artistic illustration of the integration of electron spin resonance in atomic force microscopy. The white structure at the bottom represents a single molecule, the arrows its spin quantum state and…

Researchers show an old law still holds for quirky quantum materials
Newswise — Long before researchers discovered the electron and its role in generating electrical current, they knew about electricity and were exploring its potential. One thing they learned early on…
Researchers show an old law still holds for quirky quantum materials
An illustration shows strongly interacting electrons carrying heat and charge from warmer to cooler regions of a quantum material. A theoretical study by SLAC, Stanford and the University of Illinois…
