New code for detecting hidden properties of exotic materials

Scientists at the Raman Research Institute, an autonomous body under the Department of Science and Technology, have devised a novel method to identify topological invariants in quantum materials.

This new technique employs spectral function analysis, specifically the momentum-space spectral function (SPSF), to reveal the 'hidden code' that dictates particle behavior. This innovation provides a non-direct observation method for properties vital to quantum computing and other advanced technologies.
