Universal Quantum Phenomena found in Strange Metals

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

A recent study published in Nature identifies a universal quantum phenomenon in exotic superconducting materials, specifically within a "strange metal" state. This state is characterized by a quantum speed limit that serves as a fundamental organizing principle for these materials. The findings suggest that this behavior could redefine our understanding of superconductivity and its applications. Quanta Magazine has also reported on these groundbreaking results, emphasizing their significance in the field of condensed matter physics.
