- MIT physicists discover a new type of superconductor that’s also a . . .
MIT scientists were surprised to discover a “chiral superconductor” — a material that conducts electricity without resistance, and also, paradoxically, is magnetic — in rhombohedral graphene
- Physicists discover important new property for graphene
A new property Graphene is composed of a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in hexagons resembling a honeycomb structure Since the material’s discovery, scientists have shown that different configurations of graphene layers can give rise to a variety of important properties
- MIT physicists observe key evidence of unconventional . . . - MIT News
MIT physicists observed key evidence of unconventional superconductivity in magic-angle graphene The findings could lead to the development of higher-temperature superconductors
- Insulator or superconductor? Physicists find graphene is both
Physicists at MIT and Harvard University have found that graphene, a lacy, honeycomb-like sheet of carbon atoms, can behave at two electrical extremes: as an insulator, in which electrons are completely blocked from flowing; and as a superconductor, in which electrical current can stream through without resistance
- Physicists measure a key aspect of superconductivity in “magic-angle . . .
Physicists measured how readily a current of electron pairs flows through “magic-angle” graphene, a major step toward understanding how this unusual material superconducts
- How can electrons split into fractions of themselves? - MIT News
MIT physicists have taken a key step toward solving the puzzle of what leads electrons to split into fractions of themselves Their solution sheds light on the conditions that give rise to exotic electronic states in graphene and other two-dimensional systems
- MIT physicists find unexpected crystals of electrons in an ultrathin . . .
MIT physicists report the discovery of electrons forming crystalline structures in a material billionths of a meter thick The material, rhombohedral pentalayer graphene, joins a family of materials with exotic properties that may have other “relatives ”
- Electrons become fractions of themselves in graphene, study finds
MIT physicists have observed fractional quantum Hall effect in simple pentalayer graphene The finding could make it easier to develop more robust quantum computers
