Scientists have identified a one-dimensional topological insulator that could revolutionize quantum computing and solar cell efficiency. This groundbreaking discovery paves the way for advancements in quantum computing and solar cell efficiency.
Researchers have discovered a new topological insulator (TI), a unique state of matter that differs from conventional metals, insulators, and semiconductors. Unlike most known TIs, which are either three-dimensional or two-dimensional, this TI is one-dimensional. This groundbreaking work is expected to further the development of qubits and highly efficient solar cells.
The research, conducted by scientists from Tohoku University, Osaka University, Kyoto Sangyo University, the High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK), and the National Institute of Quantum Science and Technology, was published in the journal Nature.
