In the newly published work, they pushed hBN to even more intense vibrations, but rather than damaging the underlying atomic structure, the lasers broke the crystal lattice cleanly apart.

The reason for this lies deep inside the nitinol, which has two crystal lattices -- two phases that can transform into each other.

One is quantum memory, which can store the exact state of a photon—including its phase information—in the quantum state of an atom in a crystal lattice.

Yet, abundant experimental evidence shows that quantum fluctuations of the crystal lattice prevent the long-range order from developing.

He said the predictive methodology or design principle that his research group used in the study may also prove useful to theorists who study quantum materials with other crystal lattice structures.
