In a new study published on April 3 in Nature, researchers added over a dozen states to the growing quantum zoo. "Some of these states have never been seen before," said lead author Xiaoyang Zhu, ...

Several of these quantum states were hidden, requiring the researchers to develop an innovative optical technique. The ...

Twisted molybdenum layers reveal hidden quantum states, offering insights into future quantum computing materials.

The material is molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2), which can be isolated as an incredibly thin crystal containing layers of molybdenum atoms sandwiched by sulfur atoms. These sulfur atoms can be ...

Scientists have added a dozen new “species” to the growing “quantum zoo” — a term researchers use to describe the countless ...

Zhu’s zoo solves that problem: The states he and his team discovered can all be created without an external magnet, thanks to ...

The global molybdenum market is poised for substantial growth, with its valuation projected to reach USD 500 billion by 2033.
