‘Quantum Friction’ Responsible for Mysterious Water Flow Through Carbon Nanotubes

For 15 years, scientists have been baffled by the mysterious way water flows through the tiny passages of carbon nanotubes -; pipes with walls that can be just one atom thick. The streams have confounded all theories of fluid dynamics; paradoxically, fluid passes more easily through narrower nanotubes, and in all nanotubes it moves with almost no friction. What friction there is has also defied explanation.

Superconducting Edge Currents Observed in a Topological Material

Scientists recently discovered novel quantum materials whose charge carriers exhibit 'topological' features. Charge carriers are particles that transport electrical charges through a material.

Research Shows How Archetype Quantum Material Remains an Insulator

This research sheds light on the mechanism behind how a special quantum material transitions from an electrical insulator to an electricity-conducting metal. Below a critical temperature, the subject material-;lanthanum strontium nickel oxide-;acts as an insulator due to the separation of introduced holes from the magnetic regions, forming "stripes."

PhotonQ Project Receives EUR 16 Million to Develop a Photonic Quantum Processor

Quantum computers will one day be able to solve problems at high speed that cannot be handled by classical computer systems. However, in order for these computers to become practical, they must process a significantly higher number of qubits and have lower error rates. A research project led by Professor Stefanie Barz from the University of Stuttgart is now developing a photonic quantum processor for this purpose.
