Strained strontium titanate membrane crosses into ferroelectric—and quantum—territory
Strontium titanate was once used as a diamond substitute in jewelry before less fragile alternatives emerged in the 1970s. Now, researchers have explored some of its more unusual properties, which might someday be useful in quantum materials and microelectronics applications.Quantum Physics NewsRead More
Listening to electrons ‘talk’: Lithium-like tin’s g-factor measured with 0.5 parts per billion experimental accuracy
Researchers from the Max-Planck-Institut fuer Kernphysik present new experimental and theoretical results for the bound electron g-factor in lithium-like tin, which has a much higher nuclear charge than any previous measurement. The paper is published in the journal Science.Quantum Physics NewsRead More
