Topology is everywhere

An international research team discovered that almost all materials in nature exhibit at least one topological state, contradicting the 40-year-old assumption that topological materials are rare and esoteric.

A Moebius band constructed solely by carbon atoms

Scientists have synthesized the first belt-shaped molecular nanocarbon with a twisted Moebius band topology - a Moebius carbon nanobelt - that paves the way for the development of nanocarbon materials with complex topological structures.

Ions and Rydberg-atoms: a bond between David and Goliath

Scientists have verified a novel binding mechanism forming a molecule between a tiny charged particle and in atomic measures gigantic Rydberg atom. The scientists could observe spatially resolved the molecule with the help of a self-build ion microscope.

Floquet matter and metamaterials: Time to join forces

Floquet physics investigates exotic out-of-equilibrium matter phases by applying an external temporal drive. Metamaterials offer several platforms to create tailored nanostructured, and now time-modulated, materials. Connecting these two platforms into Floquet metamaterials offers great opportunities for extreme wave control.
