Researchers have engineered a groundbreaking artificial quantum material, demonstrating a novel quantum state known as a higher-order topological quantum magnet.
This new state could offer unprecedented protection against decoherence, enhancing quantum technologies with its robust topological excitations that maintain higher quantum coherence than their individual components.
Quantum State Formation
When different quantum states combine, new collective states of matter can emerge. In the quantum realm, combining components such as atoms that possess quantum effects can give rise to macroscopic quantum states of matter, featuring exotic quantum excitations that do not exist anywhere else.
In a collaboration between Aalto University and the Institute of Physics CAS, researchers built an artificial quantum material, DOI: 10.1038/s41565-024-01775-2
