UC San Diego researchers led by Oleg Shpyrko developed a new coherent X-ray diffraction approach to observe dynamics inside a vanadium dioxide neuristor during operation, discovering that jamming the electronic flow enables learning while restoring free flow erases memory — a step toward energy-efficient brain-inspired hardware. The study was published in Nature Communications.
Researchers introduce AI Theorist, a multi-agent AI system that autonomously develops physical models through hypothesis generation and first-principles calculations, and apply it to reveal excitonic structure in α-RuCl3 from optical spectra. This is claimed to be the first demonstration of an AI system autonomously creating a physical model to explain unpublished experimental observations in a quantum material.
Researchers from Peking University's School of Physics have discovered a hidden geometric pattern governing electron behavior in quasicrystals, offering a new perspective on quantum materials and establishing a theoretical foundation for future research into superconductivity and quantum technologies.
LSU physicists have created the first room-temperature quantum material, a plasmonic metacrystal that distinguishes and transports quantum states of light without cryogenic cooling, overcoming a key barrier and enabling practical quantum technologies.
