Breakthrough quantum phase observed, paving the way for advanced computing and sensing
Scientists at Rice University and EPFL experimentally confirmed the superradiant phase transition (SRPT)—proposed by Robert Dicke in 1954—and dissipative phase transitions (DPTs). SRPT involves synchronized quantum fluctuations between light and matter, while DPTs describe phase shifts in open quantum systems losing energy to the environment. Rice researchers bypassed theoretical limitations by using magnons (spin waves) … Leer más
