Defying 60 Years of Physics – “Strange Metals” Break the Rules of Electricity

Strange metals challenge the 60-year-old theory that electric current consists of a flow of discrete charges. Strange metals show electricity carried by a quantum fluid rather than discrete electrons, challenging the long-standing Fermi liquid theory and prompting new research into electrical transport and superconductivity. We often learn that electricity arises from the movement of electrons [...]
