New publication: The Ising triangular-lattice antiferromagnet neodymium heptatantalate as a quantum spin liquid candidate. (Arh et al. 2021). Članek o prvi realizaciji kvantne spinske tekočine na trikotni mreži spinov z dominantno Isingovo antiferomagnetno izmenjalno interakcijo. Skupaj s sodelavci z Instituta “Jožef Stefan”, Inštituta za matematiko, fiziko in mehaniko ter raziskovalnih institucij iz Indije, Velike Britanije, Francije in ZDA so izvedli obsežno eksperimentalno študijo, ki je pokazala odsotnost magnetnega urejanja in dokazala obstoj spinskih korelacij Isingovega tipa v neodimovem heptatantalatu pri temperaturah velikosti le nekaj deset milikelvinov. Odkritje tako imenovane Isingove spinske tekočine uvaja nov tip tega skrivnostnega kvantno prepletenega stanja snovi, ki ostaja dinamično do najnižjih temperatur. Poleg znanstvenega vidika je odkritje potencialno pomembno tudi v luči sodobnih kvantnih tehnologij, saj spinske tekočine veljajo za eno najbolj perspektivnih platform v kvantnem računalništvu.

New publication: A compact deivce sustains a fuild of bosons (Golež, Sun, 2021) V članku je opisan pomen nedavnega odkritja eksotične kvantne tekočine v napravi, sestavljeni iz atomsko tankih plasti polprevodnikov. Ta nenavadna tekočina je tvorjena iz bozonskih delcev ekscitonov, ki so vezani pari elektronov in vrzeli. Delo predstavlja pomemben korak k stabilizaciji Bose-Einsteinovega kondenzata pri visokih temperaturah in praktično ravnovesnih pogojih, čeprav opisani eksperiment še ni dokazal kvantne koherence in superfluidnosti. Avtorja opišeta njuno vizijo razvoja področja, kjer bi uporabili natančne manipulacije na nanoskopski skali za doseganje kvantne koherence. Za konec predlagata uporabo raziskav za koristne naprave, na primer ekscitonski tranzistor, spominske elemente ali celo kvantne simulatorje.
