Ice Rink For Electrons

Topological insulators are materials with very interesting electrical properties. However, they are very difficult to produce. Researchers at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) have now succeeded in teaching a material that is easy to produce to behave like a topological insulator. In addition, they were able to manipulate the movements of the electrons in the material as…
