The interplay between topology and magnetism can lead to many exotic states.
Valentino “Tino” Cooper, a scientist at ORNL, has been appointed to DOE’s Basic Energy Sciences Advisory Committee for a three-year term.
Ho Nyung Lee, a condensed matter physicist at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory, has been elected a Fellow of the Materials Research Society.
Vortices in unconventional superconductors can support fundamentally new electronic excitations and act as a basic building block of quantum computing architecture.
Warming a crystal of the mineral fresnoite, ORNL scientists discovered that excitations called phasons carried heat three times farther and faster than phonons, the excitations that usually carry heat through a material.
A real-time feedback approach was used to reveal and control the transformational pathways during the top-down synthesis of Janus WSSe monolayers and its fractional alloys with pulsed laser deposition.
Competition among exchange interactions is able to induce novel spin correlations on a bipartite lattice without geometrical frustration.
New materials can now be routinely imaged at atomic resolution with such high throughput in aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy that automatic methods for detecting
A discovery by Oak Ridge National Laboratory researchers may aid the design of materials that better manage heat.
