Researchers have identified a class of quantum materials, called topological semimetals, that can split water into hydrogen fuel using nothing but sunlight, sidestepping the expensive platinum-based ...

Recently, researchers from the High Magnetic Field Laboratory (CHMFL), the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), in collaboration with the State Key Laboratory ...

Quantum sensors can be used to reveal a surprising new mechanism for converting light into electricity in Weyl semimetals, Boston College Assistant Professor of Physics Brian Zhou and colleagues ...

No one has ever seen axions. But scientists have theorized their existence as a way to explain some of the biggest questions in particle physics and the nature of dark matter, the mysterious substance ...

Abstract: We investigate an improved permittivity model for the dielectric constant of the Dirac semimetals and adapt it into the FDTD method. A one-dimensional frequency-dependent FDTD analysis is ...

Nanoscale environments created by topological defects in liquid crystals can serve as a template for the self-assembly of molecular amphiphiles within the defects.

“This collection of reprints allows the reader to chart the course of Müller's scientific development, from his early papers in the late 1950s all the way to high-temperature superconductivity in 1985 ...

This book gives a rather exhaustive list of isotropy subgroups of the 230 crystallographic space groups. The symmetry changes for the vast majority of observed phase transitions in crystalline solids ...

We measure drift velocity in monolayer graphene encapsulated by hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), probing its dependence on carrier density and temperature. Due to the high mobility (>5 × 104 cm2/V/s) of ...
