The comprehensive characterization of hydrogen at ultra-high pressures

Sequence of high-pressure hydrogen phases in the 300–600 GPa pressure range, according to the team’s theoretical calculations. The researchers report a projection of the structures on the a-b plane and…

New insights into quantum materials

(a) Pictorial view of the starlike lattice reconstruction in the CDW phase of 1T−TaSe2. (b) Surface-projected Brillouin zone (BZ) of the undistorted “normal” state. The red dashed lines mimic the Fermi surface…

Laser light hybrids control giant currents at ultrafast times

Circularly polarized laser pulse (a-c) versus a hencomb laser pulse (d-f). The vector potential of a circularly polarized lightwave applied to the two dimensional material Tungsten Diselenide generates no residual…

Quantum ‘magic’ could help explain the origin of spacetime

A view of the M87 supermassive black hole. RIKEN theoretical physicists have related the chaotic nature of black holes to the quantum property of magic for the first time. Credit:…

Breakthrough in magnetic quantum material paves way for ultra-fast sustainable computers

The researchers have for the first time succeeded in demonstrating a device, based on a 2D magnetic material, in room temperature. The 2D magnetic crystal is shown as the blue,…
