Twisted materials—known as moiré structures—have revolutionized modern physics, emerging as today's "alchemy" by creating entirely new phases of matter through simple geometric manipulation. The term ...

In a quiet corner of low-temperature physics, researchers have stumbled on a phase of matter that seems to break one of the ...

Matter is an inquisitive subject for scientists to investigate. Despite being so overwhelmingly surrounded by matter, there is a lot that is yet to be understood about it. Recently, researchers found ...

Scientists have discovered a new way that matter can exist—one that is different from the usual states of solid, liquid, gas or plasma—at the interface of two exotic materials made into a sandwich.

U.S. government scientists have developed a new phase of matter dubbed 'half ice, half fire,' which unites opposing electron spins in a unique magnet. When you purchase through links on our site, we ...
