The research identifies metallic theta-phase tantalum nitride (TaN₍θ₎) as the fastest heat-conducting metal ever measured. Led by Yongjie Hu of UCLA's Samueli School of Engineering, the ...

“We proved the existence of a new class of quantum materials that are both metallic and one-dimensional magnets, with strong coupling between the magnetic moments and their metallic host,” said UBC ...

A study has found a rare form of one-dimensional quantum magnetism in a metallic compound, offering evidence into a phase space that has remained, until now, largely theoretical. The study comes at a ...
