In a paper published in Nature Materials, Wilson's lab group has reported on an innovative way to use a phenomenon referred to as frustration of long-range order in a material system to engineer ...

Frustrated quantum spin chains are one-dimensional systems in which competing interactions between adjacent and next-nearest-neighbour spins inhibit the establishment of conventional magnetic order.

An international research team recently demonstrated how magnetism can be actively changed by pressure. Magnetism occurs depending on how electrons behave. For example, the elementary particles can ...

What if the magnon Hall effect, which processes information using magnons (spin waves) capable of current-free information transfer with magnets, could overcome its current limitation of being ...

A team of scientists has used an IBM quantum computer to simulate the magnetic behavior of potassium copper fluoride, known ...

“It’s a classic Columbia story—multiple groups in physics and chemistry came together to work on this new material, and we found exciting new results about how electrons move,” said Aravind ...

Scientists are closer to creating a quantum spin liquid, a state where electron spins stay dynamic even at near absolute zero, key for future quantum computing. (Nanowerk News) The future of computing ...

A researcher in the lab of Stephen Wilson, whose group studies how magnetic interactions can produce unusual states of matter relevant to quantum research. Research in the lab of UC Santa Barbara ...
