Quantum spin liquids are exotic states of matter in which spins (i.e., the intrinsic angular momentum of electrons) do not settle into an ordered pattern and continue to fluctuate, even at extremely ...

Scientists have produced a new route to materials with complex 'disordered' magnetic properties at the quantum level. The material, based on a framework of ruthenium, fulfils the requirements of the ...

An elusive form of matter called a quantum spin liquid isn’t a liquid, and it doesn’t spin — but it sure is quantum. Predicted nearly 50 years ago, quantum spin liquids have long evaded definitive ...

A quantum spin liquid is a phase of matter in which the magnetic moments in a material do not align or freeze, even at ...

Creating quantum light just became easier thanks to liquid crystals like the ones found in television screens. Team member Vitaliy Sultanov at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light in ...
