The properties of this newly discovered state of matter show great promise. They shed light on the mysterious world of quantum physics and open up new horizons of possibilities.

At the quantum level, the state of matter governs the interactions between elementary particles, which remain unchanged in the solid, liquid, and gas phases. However, the quantum realm is known for its extraordinary and mysterious properties that defy conventional explanations.

In this context, every discovery in quantum physics reveals many unknowns and opens up potential research avenues. A recent breakthrough in understanding a new quantum state of matter could revolutionize the field of quantum memory and beyond.

To recreate the conditions for this revolutionary feat, the researchers successfully induced a chiral Bose fluid state in a carefully designed setup.

The experimental setup consisted of two semiconductor layers; There was an excess of electrons in the upper layer and a lack of space in the lower one. The intrigue of the experiment was that there wasn’t enough space to house all the electrons.

Exposing the sample to an extremely strong magnetic field, the scientists carefully watched the behavior of the electrons. As the magnetic field strength increased, the sample transitioned to a chiral Bose liquid state exhibiting a number of exceptional properties.

Physicist Linjie Du of Nanjing University in China explained the results as follows:

At the boundary of the two semiconductor layers, electrons and holes move at the same speed. This leads to helical transport, which can be more controlled by external magnetic fields, as electron and hole channels are gradually separated in higher areas.

It is noteworthy that when the temperature drops almost to absolute zero, the electrons in the substance remain immune to the influence of other particles and magnetic fields, showing the expected spatial position and constant direction of spin.

This exceptional stability has enormous potential for applications in quantum-level digital data storage systems.

Why is this important?

The study also found that the effect of an external particle on an electron in the system has a simultaneous effect on all available electrons. This observation was related to the phenomenon of quantum entanglement, thanks to which particles in Bose fluids become inextricably linked. This discovery could be invaluable in the development of future quantum systems.
