By twisting layers of graphene, researchers discovered a unique electronic crystal where electrons freeze in place yet allow ...

Can insights from topology—the study of the properties of 3D objects that persist when an object is stretched or compressed—be applied in the field of quantum information processing?

Zachary Winkeler does research in low-dimensional topology, specifically knot theory. He enjoys using tools from homological algebra, like spectral sequences and A-infinity algebras, to study ...

The discovery of topological electronic crystals in twisted graphene offers insights into electron dynamics, with potential implications for quantum computing.

Before coming to Smith, Patricia Cahn was a Hans Rademacher Instructor at the University of Pennsylvania and a postdoctoral fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics. Her research is in ...

The precision of this value is guaranteed by a property of electron crystal known as topology, which describes the properties of objects that remain unchanged by modest deformations. “Just as a donut ...

These devices have proved to be promising platforms for the exploration of topological phenomena in condensed matter physics. Researchers at Northwestern University and Aalto University recently ...
