'Our follow-up effort in pursuing a better understanding of the phenomena led us to even more surprising discoveries.'
Quantum computing futuristic technology digital cyberspaceThe team reports that under some circumstances, the honeycomb is alive with tiny internal currents known as chiral orbital currents, or loop currents,. Within each of the octahedra of this quantum substance, electrons zip around in loops.
"We've discovered a new quantum state of matter," Cao said. "Its quantum transition is almost like ice melting into water."The honeycomb in question, however, is vastly different from those materials—the CMR occurs only when conditions avoid that same kind of magnetic polarization. The shift in electrical properties is also much more extreme than what you can see in any other known CMR material, Cao added.
They came up with the concept of loop currents along with co-author Itamar Kimchi of the Georgia Institute of Technology. The team's hypothesis states thatconstantly move about inside their honeycombs, tracing the boundaries of each octahedron. That disorder can cause chaos for electrons traveling in the material, Cao said, increasing the resistance and making the honeycomb an insulator.
