Physicists at the Macroscopic Quantum Matter Research Group, School of Physics, University College Cork, have unveiled a new type of superconductor that could pave the way for transformative advancements in quantum computing. This cutting-edge material, called uranium ditelluride (UTe2),
Spin-triplet topological superconductors should exhibit many unprecedented electronic properties, including fractionalized electronic states relevant to quantum information processing. Although UTe2 may embody such bulk topological superconductivity1–11, its superconductive order parameter Δ(k) remains unknown12. Many diverse forms for Δ(k) are physically possible12 in such heavy fermion materials13. Moreover, intertwined14,15 density waves of spin (SDW), charge (CDW) and pair (PDW) may interpose, with the latter exhibiting spatially modulating14,15 superconductive order parame...
Cornell researchers have discovered a rare "pseudogap" phenomenon that helps explain how the superconducting transition temperature can be greatly...
