Physicists have for the first time observed light drifting sideways in discrete, quantized steps, reproducing a quantum Hall effect that was previously seen only in electrons confined to ultra-thin ...

Superconductors are among the most puzzling materials in physics. They conduct electricity with zero resistance, but only under specific conditions that researchers have struggled for decades to ...

Physicists have forced light to behave like electrons trapped in a magnetic field, reproducing the quantum Hall effect with photons for the first time. The experiment, carried out on an optical fiber ...

Recently, a research team found a new way to control the magnetic reversal in a special material called Co 3 Sn 2 S 2, a Weyl semimetal. The team was led by Prof. Qu Zhe from the Hefei Institutes of ...
