Have you ever wished to drive microscopic matter along an arbitrarily tailored trajectory instead of just a circle? That’s exactly what we set out to achieve.

Last year, tungsten diselenide (WSe2) had its magic moment. Two independent research groups discovered “magic angles” at which two atom-thin layers of the unique semiconductor, when twisted relative to one another into what’s known as a moire pattern, can superconduct electricity. Cory Dean and his colleagues at Columbia documented superconductivity at a 5° twist angle; […]

Predicting material properties remains a major challenge in materials science, as it often requires complex and computationally intensive calculations. In particular, understanding how materials respond to electric fields is essential for the development of next-generation electronic devices.

Superconductivity is a state of matter characterized by an electrical resistance of zero, typically at very low temperatures. Past studies have found that in various materials, this unique state is accompanied by unusual electron arrangements.

A joint research team led by Professor Park Kyoung-Duck and Associate Director Suh Yung Doug of the Center for Multidimensional Carbon Materials within the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) has succeeded in realizing a high-efficiency quantum light source that emits bright lights even at room temperature. The study is published in the journal Science Advances. […]
