Quantum criticality observed in new class of materials

Wednesday, June 4, 2014 - 09:20 in Physics & Chemistry

(Phys.org) —Quantum criticality, the strange electronic state that may be intimately related to high-temperature superconductivity, is notoriously difficult to study. But a new discovery of "quantum critical points" could allow physicists to develop a classification scheme for quantum criticality—the first step toward a broader explanation.
