- It’s a quantum zoo out there, and scientists just found a dozen new ‘species.’
- There are a seemingly endless number of quantum states that describe quantum matter and the strange phenomena that emerge when large numbers of electrons interact. For decades, many of these states have been theoretical:
There are at least three quantum states: superconductivity, the Bose-Einstein condensate, and one I worked on, which is the fractional quantum Hall state, which is a topological state of matter. Mar 3, 2023I would define three states: one of them is superconductivity, the other is Bose-Einstein condensate, and one is something that I worked on, which is the fractional quantum Hall state, which is a topological state of matter
- a new way to control light interactions using a specially engineered structure called a 3D photonic-crystal cavity.
- A photonic crystal is an optical nanostructure in which the refractive index changes periodically. This affects the propagation of light in the same way.
