What would happen if you combined the unparalleled efficiency of a superconductor with the flexibility and controllability of a semiconductor? Thanks to a new breakthrough in quantum materials, we may ...

Quantum metals are metals where quantum effects—behaviors that normally only matter at atomic scales—become powerful enough to control the metal's macroscopic electrical properties. Researchers in ...

The U.S. has historically led the world in science that applies high magnetic fields, but a lack of domestic investment and technical advancement has allowed competitors in China, Japan, and Europe to ...
