In quantum mechanics, the geometry of quantum states has emerged as a powerful framework for understanding phenomena ranging ...

A new study published in Nature Physics introduces a theory of electron-phonon coupling that is affected by the quantum geometry of the electronic wavefunctions. The movement of electrons in a lattice ...

A hidden quantum geometry that distorts electron paths has finally been observed in real materials. This “quantum metric,” once thought purely theoretical, may revolutionize electronics, ...

Quantum materials can be loosely defined as materials for which quantum mechanical effects manifest on a macroscopic scale. Two classes of quantum materials are paradigmatic: superconductors, and ...

Researchers have discovered a hidden quantum geometry inside materials that subtly steers electrons, echoing how gravity warps light in space. Once thought to exist only on paper, this effect has now ...

Describing natural phenomena with geometric language is one of the most important achievements of modern physics. In the context of general relativity, Einstein treats spacetime as a dynamic geometric ...

Imagine traveling through a city where the streets themselves change shape depending on how fast you drive down them. For tiny particles traveling close to the speed of light, such a thing may indeed ...

How can data be processed at lightning speed, or electricity conducted without loss? To achieve this, scientists and industry alike are turning to quantum materials, governed by the laws of the ...

Deep reinforcement learning is considered an effective technology in quantum optimization and can provide strategies for optimal control of complex quantum systems. More precise measurements require ...

Famously, at the quantum scale, particles can be in multiple possible locations at once. A particle’s state spreads out like a wave, peaking where the particle is likely to be found. When you measure ...
