Researchers, For The First Time, Turned Light Into A State That Is Both Solid And Liquid, Called A “Supersolid.” This Feat Was Achieved Using A Special Semiconductor–Aluminum Gallium Arsenide, Instead Of Ultracold Atoms. This Discovery May Advance Quantum Tech And Deepen Our Understanding Of Matter’s Strange Behaviors In The Quantum Realm.
In a 1st, scientists turn light into a supersolid that flows like liquidScientists have turned light into a supersolid for the first time, merging properties of solids and fluids in a quantum breakthrough.
