Researchers have completely suppressed superconductivity in magic-angle graphene by screening interactions between electrons, ...

An experiment designed to settle a long-running debate made superconductivity disappear completely - and left physicists with ...

One of the central ideas in modern physics is the phase transition—a sudden transformation of the state of a material. We ...

Last year, tungsten diselenide (WSe 2) had its magic moment. Two independent research groups discovered "magic angles" at which two atom-thin layers of the unique semiconductor, when twisted relative ...

Physicists have found a new way to switch superconductivity on and off in magic-angle graphene. The discovery could lead to ultrafast, energy-efficient superconducting transistors for 'neuromorphic' ...

The Ohio State team found that the magic angle appears to be less magical than originally thought. Their work found that graphene layers still superconducted at a smaller angle, around 0.9 degrees. It ...

Pablo Jarillo-Herrero tells Hamish Johnston about what happened next after his lab created magic-angle graphene and won the Physics World Breakthrough of the Year award in 2018 Latest twist Pablo ...

Twisting again: magic-angle bilayer graphene. Courtesy: Pablo Jarillo-Herrero Two years ago a team of researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the US kicked off the field of ...
