Electrical control of quantum phenomenon could improve future electronic devices
A new method by Penn State researchers conveniently changes the direction of electron flow in materials that exhibit the quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) effect—a phenomenon in which the flow of…

Manipulating nonlinear exciton polaritons in an atomically-thin semiconductor with artificial potential landscapes
Newswise — Exciton polaritons, hybrid quasiparticles caused by the strong exciton-photon coupling, constitute a unique prototype for studying many-body physics and quantum photonic phenomena traditionally in cryogenic conditions. Atomically thin…
Phonon engineering in Yb:La2CaB10O19 crystal for extended lasing beyond the fluorescence spectrum
Newswise — Electron and phonon are two fundamental particles (quasi-particles) of condensed matter and their interplay in single crystals can create many interesting physical phenomena, such as polariton, charge density…
Researchers use measurements to generate quantum entanglement and teleportation
The researchers at Google Quantum AI and Stanford University explored how measurements can fundamentally change the structure of quantum information in space-time. Credit: Google Quantum AI, designed by Sayo-Art Quantum…
