Electromagnetism

When some ultrathin materials undergo a “nematic transition,” their atomic lattice structure stretches in ways that unlock superconductivity (as this conceptual image shows). MIT physicists have identified how this essential nematic switch occurs in one class of superconductors.

A new switch for superconducting
