Quantum Melting of Crystalline Electrons in Twisted Layers

Scientists uncover how electrons self-organize into crystalline patterns—and melt—inside atomically twisted 2D materials. more

Breakthrough in Mid-Infrared Single-Photon Generation

Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter (MPSD) in collaboration with DTU Electro, the University of Sheffield and the University of Copenhagen, have proposed a novel method for efficiently generating single photons in the mid-infrared (MIR) range. This theoretical breakthrough, published in Science Advances, has the potential to revolutionize quantum technologies by enabling new applications in molecular sensing, precision metrology, and quantum communication. more
