A team of physicists has uncovered a hidden topological structure within one of the most widely used sources of quantum entanglement.

The Menger property, a renowned covering property in topology, offers a generalisation of σ‑compactness by asserting that for any sequence of open covers, one can select finitely many elements from ...

Topological wave structures are wave patterns that exhibit specific topological properties, or in other words, properties that remain unvaried under smooth deformations of a physical system. These ...

An international team of researchers has discovered that the quantum particles responsible for the vibrations of materials—which influence their stability and various other properties—can be ...

Researchers in Finland have experimentally realized a long-predicted class of quantum material: a two-dimensional topological ...

Artistic illustration of a topological exciton insulator: Excitons condense in the bulk of the material, forming a collective insulating phase, while topologically protected edge modes propagate ...

Gear-obsessed editors choose every product we review. We may earn commission if you buy from a link. Why Trust Us? “The material fluctuates between two different states, as if it cannot decide which ...

The key to building reliable quantum computers may lie in a simple chemical recipe adjustment. Researchers have found that a slight change in the ratio between two elements is enough to push ...

Purdue University doctoral student Yang Xu, lead author of a new research paper on "topological insulators," an emerging class of materials that could make possible "spintronic" devices and practical ...

Topological crystals are a revolutionary class of materials that exhibit unique electronic and physical properties due to their non-trivial topological band structures. These materials have garnered ...

Something strange goes on inside the material platinum-bismuth-two (PtBi₂). A new study by researchers at IFW Dresden and the Cluster of Excellence ct.qmat demonstrates that while PtBi₂ may look like ...
