What happened

Quantum materials do things ordinary materials cannot.

They carry current without any loss, or conduct only along their outer edge while the inside insulates.

Future quantum computers and quantum sensors will run on materials like these.

Key facts

New catalogs map the quantum possibilities of atomically thin materials

Twistronics has become a new alchemy of materials. By choosing atomically thin layers, stacking them and changing their relative angle, researchers can create electronic behavior absent from the original ingredients.
