A new study reveals that highly disordered indium oxide superconductors undergo a first-order quantum phase transition — a sudden shift from a superconducting to an insulating state. This finding is ...

Electronic order in quantum materials often emerges not uniformly, but through subtle and complex patterns that vary from ...

German scientists have laid the groundwork for the next generation of quantum technologies by developing an ultra-fast, ultra ...

Scientists studied a specific setup of quantum materials in order to see what may be possible. Electrons that switch from ...

Quantum phase transitions represent fundamental changes between distinct quantum states of matter, driven not by thermal fluctuations but by quantum fluctuations at zero temperature. These transitions ...

Back in 2019, Google made waves by claiming it had achieved what has been called “quantum supremacy”—the ability of a quantum computer to perform operations that would take a wildly impractical amount ...

Researchers have achieved a remarkable result: capturing and studying phase changes in quantum hardware, which hold hold promise for next-generation technologies like quantum computing and ...

Researchers report a field-tuned quantum phase transition in a disordered iron-based alloy family, TiFexCu2x−1Sb. Thermodynamic and transport measurements reveal a quantum critical point near 0.13 ...

A stable "exceptional fermionic superfluid," a new quantum phase that intrinsically hosts singularities known as exceptional points, has been discovered by researchers at the Institute of Science ...

Collective behavior is an unusual phenomenon in condensed-matter physics. When quantum spins interact together as a system, ...
