Superconductivity is an advantageous physical phenomenon observed in some materials, which entails an electrical resistance ...

Scientists at ETH Zurich have discovered a new type of magnetism. Experiments show that an artificially produced material becomes magnetic through a mechanism that hasn’t been seen before.

ETH researchers have detected a new type of magnetism in an artificially produced material. The material becomes ferromagnetic through minimization of the kinetic energy of its electrons.

But instead of using a Mott insulator, the researchers used a technique called “doping,” which either removes some particles, thereby leaving “holes” in the lattice, or adds extra particles. “We don’t ...

To this end, I developed the Cytoskeleton Lattice-based Kinetic Simulator (CyLaKS). CyLaKS is a C/C++ kinetic Monte Carlo-Brownian Dynamics (kMC-BD) simulation framework designed to fill the large gap ...
