Stabilising fleeting quantum states with light

Jun 07, 2025 Researchers use X-ray lasers to stabilize and study fleeting quantum states, opening new paths for exploring emergent properties in quantum materials. (Nanowerk News) Quantum materials exhibit remarkable emergent properties when they are excited by external sources. However, these excited states decay rapidly once the excitation is removed,...
