In der Überlagerung von gemessener Elektronenverteilung (links) und dreieckiger Atomstruktur (rechts) wird deutlich, dass die Elektronen (gelb) nicht auf den grauen Indium Atomen sitzen, sondern sich in den leeren Regionen (rot und blau) sammeln und ein Honigwabenmuster bilden. Dieser Effekt macht die topologischen Eigenschaften des Quantenmaterials Indenen besser als die des Wunderwerkstoffs Graphen.

Triangular Honeycombs

Researchers from the Cluster of Excellence ct.qmat–Complexity and Topology in Quantum Matter–have recently conceived and realized a new quantum material. The research results have appeared in the journal Nature Communications.
