Heng Zhang, Niloufar Nilforoushan, Christian Weidgans et al.
Quasiparticle condensates are among the most striking solid-state manifestations of quantum physics. Coupling macroscopic real-space wavefunctions to additional degrees of freedom, such as the electron spin, would add valuable control kn...

Yiming Pan, Sotirios Fragkos, Dominique Descamps et al.
Understanding and controlling valley-specific light–matter interactions and non-equilibrium microscopic coupling mechanisms lie at the heart of valleytronics. Due to their strong in-plane anisotropy, which enables polarization-controlled...

Rochelle Silverman, Erez Zerbib, David Garenne et al.
Materials that change shape or flow typically rely on external fields, photochemical cues or compositions fixed at assembly. Here we introduce a self-morphing active material whose mechanical behaviour is genetically programmed and execu...
