Electronic states in TMD Moiré systems. Credit: Nature Communication (2022). DOI: 10.1038/s41467-022-34683-x Mysterious changes in the phases of matter – from solid to liquid and back again – have fascinated Eun-Ah Kim since she was in elementary school in South Korea. Without cold drinking water readily available, on hot days children would bring bottles of …

Quantum algorithms save time in calculating electron dynamics

Quantum algorithms save time in calculating electron dynamics

The calculations make it possible to determine the electron densities and the changes after excitation with high spatial and temporal resolution. Here, the example of the lithium hydride molecule shows the shift in electron density from cyanide (red) to lithium (green) during a laser pulse. Credit: F. Langkabel / HZB Researchers investigated the ability of …
