Laser method unlocks 3,000-Kelvin thin-film synthesis for quantum materials

TL;DRNew laser technique enables creation of quantum materials at higher temperatures than previously possible.

Why it matters: Easier manufacturing of quantum materials could accelerate development of next-gen computing and sensors.

Thin films might not come up in conversation every day, but they are all around us. Take the metallic plastic films of chip bags, for example, or the anti-reflective coatings on eyeglasses. Even the coatings on pills that make them easier to swallow are thin films. Depositing…
