When quantum spins interact, they can produce collective behaviors that defy long-standing expectations. Researchers have now shown that the Kondo effect behaves very differently depending on spin ...

Collective behavior is an unusual phenomenon in condensed-matter physics. When quantum spins interact together as a system, ...

Quantum materials can behave in surprising ways when many tiny spins act together, producing effects that don’t exist in ...

The size of the spin crucially affects how the system behaves. At spin-1/2, fully quantum spins pair up and cancel each other ...

What is the Quantum Size Effect? The quantum size effect (QSE) is a phenomenon observed in nanomaterials where their electronic, optical, and magnetic properties deviate from those of the bulk ...

A quantum property associated with tiny objects has been found to persist in an experiment with more than a thousand atoms. This could help us understand where the boundary between the quantum world ...

Researchers at Osaka Metropolitan University have successfully developed a novel type of Kondo necklace utilizing a ...
