New quantum material could make electronics 1,000 times faster

  • Scientists at Northeastern University have discovered a quantum material that can switch between two states—conducting electricity and insulating—which could make electronics up to 1,000 times faster than current devices.
  • The material, called 1T-TaS₂, can now be stabilized to act like a metal at close to room temperature, a significant advancement from needing extremely cold temperatures before.
  • This breakthrough offers a way to control a material's conductivity using light, potentially leading to smaller, more energy-efficient devices that operate at unprecedented speeds.
  • The research, detailed in Nature Physics, could open doors to future electronics with enhanced performance, potentially revolutionizing the industry.
