Watching quantum behavior in action: MagnetoARPES reveals time-reversal symmetry breaking in a kagome superconductor

Electron movement and structures described in quantum physics allow researchers to better understand how and why materials like superconductors behave as they do. Rice University researchers Jianwei Huang and Ming Yi have developed a new capability, magnetoARPES, building on angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) that allows researchers to study quantum behaviors they have been unable to resolve using ARPES alone. The work has been pu…

Rice Scientists Introduce Innovative Tool to Observe Quantum Behavior in

In a groundbreaking advancement poised to reshape our understanding of quantum materials, researchers at Rice University have unveiled magnetoARPES, an innovative extension of the widely used angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) technique. This novel method integrates a tunable magnetic field directly into ARPES experiments, enabling the observation of electron behaviors under magnetic influence previously inaccessible with conventi…
