Physicists find direct evidence of strong electron correlation in a 2D material for the first time - EurekAlert

MIT physicists have detected electron correlations in a 2D material called ABC trilayer graphene. Understanding how electron correlations drive electrical states can help scientists engineer exotic functional materials, such as unconventional superconductors.
In recent years, physicists have discovered materials that are able to switch their electrical character from a metal to an insulator, and even to a superconductor, which is a material in a friction-… [+7285 chars] Read More
