Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have successfully simulated higher-order topological (HOT) lattices with unprecedented accuracy using digital quantum computers. These ...

FIG.1. (a) Schematic representation of the third generation of the Sierpinski gasket waveguide arrays with r=0.3a, 0.5a, 0.6a. Blue and orange sectors of these arrays represent the first and ...

Just like a book can't be judged by its cover, a material can't always be judged by its surface. But, for an elusive conjectured class of materials, physicists have now shown that the surface ...

Topological superconductors are materials that, beyond simply exhibiting superconductivity, possess a topological order. This order refers to the global properties of the material's wavefunctions that ...

Twisting atomically thin magnetic layers does more than reshape their electronics—it can create giant, topological magnetic textures. In chromium triiodide, researchers observed skyrmion-like patterns ...

Microsoft team led by UC Santa Barbara physicists unveils first-of-its-kind topological qubit, paving the way for a more fault-tolerant quantum computer In a leap forward for quantum computing, a ...

With a new mathematical model, a team of biophysicists has revealed fresh insights into how biological tissues are shaped by the active motion of structural imperfections known as "topological defects ...
