Discovery of an extremely rare electronic order. Chirality realized by a spontaneous ordering of the quantum mechanical electronic charge density. Optical induction of quantum matter. Circularly polarized light can control electronic chirality, which is closely related to topological properties.
Advanced TEM, SSNMR, and electroanalytical techniques revealed that the sodiation mechanism of selenium in microporous carbon is unexpectedly inhomogeneous, both spatially and in terms of composition. These combined findings highlight the complex phenomenology of electrochemical phase transformations in nanoconfined materials, which may profoundly differ from their “free” counterparts.
Identifying the functional groups that passivate the edges of exfoliated h-BN nanosheets will facilitate the development of this important 2D nanomaterial.
Hybrid dark-state metasurfaces achieved separate implementation of resonance and electromagnetic response, enabling more versatile and configurable metamaterials.
Imposing vibrational coherence into topological states may become a universal light control principle for reinforcing protected quantum transport.

Long Qi, Ryan Richards, Aaron Sadow, Lin Zhou, and Emma White are among 29 faculty members will participate in the Research Collaboration Catalysts 2020-2021 cohort, designed to train the next generation of research team leaders.
Chirag Viswani is the first recipient of the Qiming Li and Xiaosha Graduate Scholarship for Excellent Research in Physics. He is conducting his research under the supervision of Prof. Jigang Wang and focused on topology-enabled quantum logic and information science.
DOE Office of Technology Transitions has made funds available to the DOE national laboratory system to assist non-DOE entities working to combat the coronavirus pandemic.
A multi-institutional team of scientists led by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Ames Laboratory, which has been working on the problem for almost three years, is growing into the Institute for Cooperative Upcycling of Plastics (iCOUP) Energy Frontier Research Center (EFRC), with $12.8 million in funding over four years.
