OPTOlogic researchers from ICFO, in collaboration with the University of Warsaw and the Institute of Physics, Polish Academy of Sciences, show how to generate many-body Bell correlated states using ultracold quantum gases in optical lattices. Quantum correlations are a fundamental aspect of quantum mechanics. They refer to the correlations between the outcomes of measurements performed […]
A team of researchers uncovers hidden gems lurking behind the Abelian-Higgs model in one spatial dimension and time. While universal fault-tolerant quantum computing with error correction remains elusive, the future belongs to special-purpose quantum computers, i.e. quantum simulators. Although there are no rigorous proofs, the physics community strongly believes that quantum simulators have already led […]
Exploring Topological Quantum Critical Points A recent study published in Physical Review Letters predicted the existence of a new state of matter: quantum critical points with topological properties occurring in the paradigmatic strongly-correlated extended Bose-Hubbard model. Condensed Matter Physics and Topological Phases Condensed matter physics deals with systems of many interacting particles which can […]
A team of OPTOlogic researchers describes in Nature Quantum Materials a technique to probe the orbital texture of a metal using photoemission spectroscopy. In the article, published in the journal Nature Quantum Materials, researchers from the Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society, together with researchers from the University of Bordeaux, the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, the University of Würzburg, the New […]
An international team of theoretical researchers provides a thorough overview of quantum physics and its introduction to particle physics. In these last decades, there has been amazing progress focused on isolating and manipulating individual quantum systems and studying in-depth quantum many-body phenomena to accomplish outstanding results and achievements in the field. Constituted as one of […]
The study analyzes the results of a community effort and determines that machine learning greatly improves the estimation of the properties of diffusing particles. Since Albert Einstein provided a theoretical foundation for Robert Brown’s observation of the erratic or unpredictable movement of microscopic particles suspended within pollen grains, significant new findings that deviate quite a […]
Researchers from the Physical Chemistry Department of the Fritz Haber Institute and the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter in Hamburg have found out that ultrafast switches in material properties can be prompted by laser pulses – and why. This knowledge may enable new transistor concepts. Advancing Transistor Technology with Light Making the speed of […]
