Researchers have for the first time created a reconfigurable polariton 2D quasicrystal. The team from the Skolkovo Institute ...

Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) are fascinating states of matter that emerge when atoms or molecules are cooled to extremely ...

A supersolid is a paradoxical state of matter—it is rigid like a crystal but flows without friction like a superfluid. This ...

As the collapsed core of a massive star, a neutron star is a small but incredibly dense object, packing up to three times the ...

Researchers have found that 2D materials can self-form microscopic cavities that trap light and electrons, altering their ...

The story begins with the black hole information paradox. According to relativity, anything that falls into a black hole is ...

Twisted materials—known as moiré structures—have revolutionized modern physics, emerging as today's "alchemy" by creating entirely new phases of matter through simple geometric manipulation. The term ...

Researchers used a 58-qubit quantum processor to realize and probe a Floquet topological phase, revealing exotic non-equilibrium matter beyond classical reach. (Nanowerk News) Unlike conventional ...

Researchers in Konstanz discovered a way to manipulate materials with light by exciting magnon pairs, reshaping their ...

In some M-point moiré materials, electrons lock into crisscrossing patterns — a sign of one-dimensional behavior. In certain cases, they can also freeze into orthonormal valence bond dimers, revealing ...

Unlike conventional phases of matter, the so-called non-equilibrium quantum phases are defined by their dynamical and time-evolving properties — a behavior that cannot be captured by traditional ...
