Figure 1. (A) Lattice model for realising the deconfined quantum phase transition. (B) The phase diagram for the square lattice SU(N) model. Dots represent the quantum phase transition points. Red ...
Many substances change their properties when they are cooled below a certain critical temperature. Such a phase transition occurs, for example, when water freezes. However, in certain metals there are ...
The melting of materials seems like a simple phenomenon. However, when their thickness is reduced to just a few atoms, ...
