In Kagome crystals, electrons synchronize, forming a collective "song" that evolves with the crystal's shape.
A study published in Nature reveals that geometry can tune quantum coherence, opening new possibilities for materials development.
Quantum coherence is usually limited to exotic states like superconductivity, but in Kagome metal CsV₃Sb₅, coherence is observed without superconductivity.
Geometry itself can tune quantum coherence, opening new possibilities to develop materials where form defines function.
