**Tiny Atomic Defects Reveal a Quantum Secret Hidden Inside an Unusual Metal**
By Columbia University - Published on 25 October 2026
Atomic-scale defects in an unusual metal may offer a new way to control quantum states. Scientists at Columbia University have discovered that electron waves can become trapped inside a metal, even when pathways remain available for them to escape. The finding, published in Science, provides the first experimental evidence of a long-predicted quantum phenomenon in [...]
