Einstein's Geometry: How It Shapes Electron Movement in Chips

Scientists at UNIGE have discovered a hidden quantum geometry within materials that influences electron paths similarly to gravity bending light, opening new possibilities for advanced electronics and quantum technology. This finding, observed at the interface of specific oxides, challenges previous assumptions and could lead to breakthroughs in high-frequency electronics, superconductivity, and light-matter interactions.

"Experimental Evidence: Discovery of Graviton-like Particles in Quantum Material"

Scientists from Columbia, Nanjing University, Princeton, and the University of Munster have presented the first experimental evidence of collective excitations with spin called chiral graviton modes (CGMs) in a semiconducting material, bridging the gap between quantum mechanics and Einstein’s theories of relativity. The discovery, published in Nature, could potentially connect high energy physics and condensed matter physics, shedding light on the mysterious nature of gravity. The research, which builds on the legacy of late Columbia professor Aron Pinczuk, marks a significant step toward a better understanding of the universe and its fundamental forces.

"Experimental Evidence of Graviton-Like Particle Found in Quantum Material"

Researchers have presented the first experimental evidence of collective excitations with spin called chiral graviton modes (CGMs) in a semiconducting material, marking the first experimental substantiation of the concept of gravitons in a condensed matter system. The discovery was made in a type of condensed matter called a fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) liquid, and the ability to study graviton-like particles in the lab could help bridge the gap between quantum mechanics and Einstein's theories of relativity. The findings could potentially connect high energy physics and condensed matter physics, offering new understanding of quantum systems and materials.
