Toestanden in quantummateriaal germaneen kunnen aan en uit

The original version of this story was published by Utrecht Unversity.   Onderzoekers van de Universiteit Utrecht en de Universiteit Twente hebben een manier gevonden om quantumtoestanden in het ultradunne materiaal germaneen actief te sturen. Met het elektrische veld van een scanning-tunnelingmicroscoop kunnen ze de zogeheten topologische toestanden in nanolinten van germaneen letterlijk aan- en …

When thin becomes thinner – Germanene nanoribbons pave the way for quantum computing

If you start with a two-dimensional ribbon and make it narrower and narrower, when does it stop being a ribbon and start being a one-dimensional line? Scientists from Utrecht University and the University of Twente made one-atom-thick ultrathin nanoribbons consisting of germanium atoms. They have shown that this system exhibits amazing properties that can be useful, for example, in quantum computing. Their work was recently published in Nature Communications.

New study highlights potential of 2D materials in advanced light-based technologies

In a new study published in Physical Review B, researchers led by professor Zeila Zanolli and PhD candidate Riccardo Reho from Utrecht University, explored the impact of stacking, twisting, and interlayer distance on the electronic and optical properties of structures made of specific two-dimensional quantum materials. The study revealed that these factors could significantly alter …
