Scientists create new quantum spin liquid materials, advancing quantum computing technologies.

Scientists have found a new way to create quantum spin liquid materials, a unique state of matter with unconventional magnetic properties. This method, published in Science, uses a mix of elements like yttrium, bismuth, and iron under heat and pressure, offering better control over magnetic properties. The discovery could advance quantum computing and other technologies. Separately, researchers from the University of Birmingham created the first material with complex "disordered" magnetic properties using ruthenium, marking another step in understanding quantum spin liquids.
