Amid the many mysteries of quantum physics, subatomic particles don't always follow the rules of the physical world. They can ...

Scientists at Brown University have discovered a new class of quantum particles known as fractional excitons, which exhibit ...

The quantum world just got stranger thanks to the discovery of unexpected behavior in particles called fractional excitons.

exhibiting quantized values that are integral or fractional multiples of e²/h, where e is the elementary charge and h is Planck’s constant. One of the most remarkable aspects of the Quantum Hall ...

Scientists had already shown that electrons can split into fractions under a very strong magnetic field, in what is known as the fractional quantum Hall effect. Ju's work was the first to find ...

LIVERMORE, Calif. - While Wei Pan spends his days studying negatively charged electrons, he's positively buzzing with excitement after being elected a ...

"The fractional quantum Hall effect in our device relies on the alliance of topology and interactions leading to the emergence of quasi-particles that have no equivalent among the elementary ...
