In a surprising discovery, an international team of researchers, led by scientists in the University of Minnesota Center for Quantum Materials, found that deformations in quantum materials that cause imperfections in the crystal structure can actually improve the material’s superconducting and electrical properties.
The groundbreaking findings could provide new insight for developing the next generation of quantum-based computing and electronic devices.
The research just appeared in Nature Materials, a peer-reviewed scientific journal published by Nature Publishing Group.
“Quantum materials have unusual magnetic and electrical properties that, if understood and controlled, could revolutionize virtually every aspect of society and enable highly energy-efficient electrical syst...
