A new study has revealed how tiny imperfections and vibrations inside a promising quantum material could be used to control ...

When you toss a coin, you put it into a higher-energy state until it falls back down again. It can then end up in one of two ...

A new study examined the mechanism governing the nonlinear Hall effect, paving the way for battery-free devices.

Physicists have produced experimental evidence that anyons, exotic quasiparticles long thought to exist only in ...

“The theoretical framework we developed explains how quasiparticles emerge in systems with an extremely heavy impurity, ...

The study shows that in quantum devices, reading a clock consumes far more energy than running it. This insight will help ...

In chemistry, molecules with a "flat" geometry are often stable enough to support a wide range of reactions. But in the quantum world, that's not technically true.

Graphic illustrating the difference in energy between running a quantum clock (left: a single electron hopping between two nanoscale regions) and reading the ticks of the clock (right). The energy ...

When scientists repeatedly drove a strongly interacting quantum system with laser “kicks,” they expected it to heat up and grow chaotic. Instead, the atoms abruptly stopped absorbing energy and locked ...

Looming behind Regenstein Library is a bronze, mushroom cloud–shaped sculpture—Henry Moore’s Nuclear Energy. Installed in 1967, it now seems like an inconspicuous part of the campus landscape. In ...
