A recent series of experiments at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (National MagLab) at Los Alamos National Laboratory leveraged some of the nation's highest-powered nondestructive magnets ...

Researchers have discovered quantum oscillations of electrical resistivity in an insulator for the first time. The new discovery, made in the mixed valence Kondo insulator ytterbium dodecaboride, is ...

For more than seven years, scientists at the University of Michigan have explored the strange quantum oscillations of the Kondo insulator ytterbium boride (YbB 12). In 2018, the team discovered that ...

Ultrasonic measurements reveal magnetic quantum oscillations only after YbB12 transitions into a metallic state. (Nanowerk News) The organization and movement of electrons within a material determine ...

A study from the Research Center for Materials Nanoarchitectonics (MANA) has uncovered a theoretical mechanism showing how the electronic band structures of strongly correlated insulators can be ...

If there are two classes of matter that electronics people can agree on, its conductors and insulators. Electrically, conductors and insulators don’t have much in common. The same has held true in the ...
