Titre | An Elegant Twist on Condensed Matter |
Résumé | We are generally more familiar with the beauty of images that showcase the natural world than with the beauty inside materials. Advances in theoretical insights, experimental techniques, and reconstruction algorithms, however, now allow us to explore this elegance in fine detail. For example, polymers and ferroelectric ceramics host twist patterns; chiral liquid crystals display patterns of molecular orientation; and magnetic materials exhibit axisymmetric whirls of spin. The talk will gradually focus on helical magnetic textures and their viability to influence a superconductor for adaptable recipes for quantum operations. But also, our efforts to quantize helicity, joining the likes of electrical charge and light. |
