Could solving one of physics’ longest-standing mysteries bring us closer to understanding high-temperature superconductivity?
A research team from Peking University’s School of Physics has uncovered new evidence that quantum geometry—a subtle property of how electrons behave at the quantum level—plays a key role in the unusual behavior of strange metals, a class of materials that has puzzled scientists for decades.
The findings offer a new way to understand the physics behind materials closely linked to high-temperature superconductivity, opening new directions for research into quantum materials.
