Quantum physicists at the Würzburg-Dresden Cluster of Excellence ct.qmat have developed a rapid test method to systematically identify topological 2D materials in record time. It uses special X-rays to detect the different orbital angular momenta of electrons (shown in blue and red). The method was developed using the quantum material indenene, which has a triangular atomic structure. (Image: Christoph Mäder/Jörg Bandmann, pixelwg)

Rapid Test for Topological 2D Materials: Researchers from the Würzburg-Dresden Cluster of Excellence ct.qmat have developed a method with which two-dimensional topological materials can be detected more easily and quickly.

Topological quantum materials are hailed as a cornerstone of future technological advancements. Yet, validating their exceptional qualities has always been a lengthy business. However, researchers at the Cluster of Excellence ct.qmat have now developed an experimental technique that systematically identifies two-dimensional topological materials through a rapid test. This breakthrough could help accelerate the progress of this booming class of materials. ...
