Finally! Physicists Create an Exotic Quantum State of Matter That Works at Room Temperature
ScienceAlert · By David Nield ·
The Brief
- Physicists report creating an exotic quantum state of matter that behaves like both a liquid and a crystal.
- The state is reported to work at room temperature, according to ScienceAlert's headline.
- The source provided is a short summary; no further experimental details are given.
Why it matters
If confirmed, a room-temperature quantum state with mixed liquid and crystal behaviour could broaden what quantum effects are practical to study and use outside extreme cold conditions.
