The Fermi–Hubbard model captures essential features of those interactions in a simplified mathematical framework. Although it is not a complete description of a material used in industrial applications, it provides a foundation for investigating mechanisms associated with high-temperature superconductivity.
Ever since quantum mechanics first described particles, like electrons, as rippling waves, researchers have wondered if those waves could be trapped in place. Writing today in Science a century later, a team of Columbia University researchers reports waves of electrons…

As a young PhD student at Harvard University in the mid-1980s, Sajeev John published an audacious paper in the prestigious journal Physical Review Letters. It contained a radical notion: light could be trapped. The single-author work caught the attention of Nobel…
Superconductivity is a quantum mechanical phenomenon where certain materials can conduct electric current with zero electrical resistance. This means a superconducting material can carry an electric current indefinitely without losing energy, a concept that can revolutionize how we produce, transmit,…

Most of us recognize basic phases of matter and their properties: solids maintain their shape, liquids flow freely with constant volume, and gases expand to fill their container. Quantum phases, on the other hand, are much harder to categorize, overturning…
A research team led by the University of Osaka has directly observed an unusual heavy-fermion state forming at the boundary between a one-atom-thick material and a metal for the first time. Such states are closely linked to exotic quantum phenomena,…
