DEFINITION. “Condensed matter physics (CMP) seeks to understand the microscopic interactions of matter at the quantum and atomistic levels, and describes how these interactions result in both mesoscopic and macroscopic properties.” https://lnkd.in/eKzctYWy View in LinkedIn

QUANTUM FIELDS. “Intermolecular forces are pervasive in nature and give rise to various phenomena including surface wetting, adhesive forces in biology, and the Casimir effect, which causes two charge-neutral, metal objects in vacuum to attract each other. These interactions are the result of quantum fluctuations of electromagnetic waves and the boundary conditions imposed by the interacting materials.” https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-018-0777-8 View in LinkedIn

KEY THEORY. “Quantum fluctuations of the vacuum stress-energy tensor are highly non-Gaussian, and can have unexpectedly large effects on spacetime geometry.” https://lnkd.in/eeq_Rq-x View in LinkedIn

The f electron orbitals are asymmetric, can be unfilled and account for many physical and chemical properties of matter. https://lnkd.in/eaQ4p_NY View in LinkedIn

MOIRÉ INTERFERENCE PATTERNS. “Moiré systems formed by 2D atomic layers have widely tunable electrical and optical properties and host exotic, strongly correlated and topological phenomena, including superconductivity, correlated insulator states and orbital magnetism.” https://www.nature.com/articles/s41578-021-00284-1 View in LinkedIn

APPLICABILITY. “Recently, first-principles electronic structure calculations have been shown to be suitable for investigation of the multipole ordered states in correlated solid state materials.” https://journals.jps.jp/doi/full/10.7566/JPSJ.87.041008 View in LinkedIn

FIRST PRINCIPLES. “To treat multipolar degrees of freedom from first principles, it is thus needed to treat strong local electron correlations, spin–orbit interaction, and the multi-orbital f electron character on an equal footing.” https://journals.jps.jp/doi/full/10.7566/JPSJ.87.041008 View in LinkedIn

F ELECTRON ORBITALS. “The electron orbital letters go in the order s, p, d, f, g, h, i, j, etc. At the fourth and higher levels, there are seven f orbitals in addition to the 4s, 4p, and 4d orbitals. Counting the 4s, 4p, and 4d orbitals, this makes a total of 16 orbitals in the fourth level. They have even more complicated shapes. s, p, d, and f orbitals are available at all higher energy levels as well.” (Great graphics). https://lnkd.in/eaQ4p_NY View in LinkedIn
