Single Layer Of Material Produces Flat Band For High-temp Quantum Effects
Original: A Single Layer Of Material Creates A Flat Band For High-temp Quantum Effects
Researchers report that a single layer of material can create a flat electronic band, a structure that enables quantum effects at relatively high temperatures. Flat bands trap electrons so they interact strongly, a condition usually requiring extreme cooling, so achieving it in an atomically thin layer could point toward more practical quantum devices and superconductors. Details of the study and its implications for quantum technology are drawing attention.
Why now: Flat bands that work at high temperatures could bring quantum technologies closer to practical use.
