The amorphous state of matter is the most abundant form of visible matter in the universe, and includes all structurally ...

Topological matter refers to systems in which topology is required for their characterisation. This includes materials with topological defects such as skyrmions, or topologically-protected edge ...

These three scientists were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2016 for their groundbreaking work on topological phase transitions and the discovery of topological phases of matter. Since then, ...

Condensed matter physics has fast become the largest discipline within physics. Based on an established course, this comprehensive textbook covers one-body, many-body and topological perspectives. It ...

Multiterminal Josephson junctions, nanoscale devices with unique electronic properties, comprise non-superconducting metallic ...

Our research group fabricates and studies colloidal particles with different numbers of handles and genus g. When introduced into a nematic liquid crystal, these particles induce three-dimensional ...

Physicists developed a method using hydrogen cations to control electronic properties in magnetic Weyl semimetals, enabling ...

rubber and other "soft" matter to degenerate atomic gases, superconductors, quantum Hall and other topological quantum systems. The unifying theme is the collective universal behavior that emerges at ...

A research team led by The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) has achieved a groundbreaking quantum ...
