It’s fun to see something pop up that read a few weeks ago for work! This kind of excitation is particularly interesting because of how challenging it is to observe-it’s fully electrically neutral, so the vast majority of probes people usually use to interrogate solid state phenomena like light and voltages fully don’t work. There are other excitations that are electrically neutral and therefore awful to work with that we think might be useful for quantum computing. Successful work in this kind of energy space is exciting, and paves the way for the exploitation of so many wonderous patterns of electronic motion that scarcely anyone learns about in college or even grad school.
- tinco 3y agoComplete layman here. When you say excitation, it means that it absorbed some impulse of (electrical?) energy right? Where does the energy go after the excitation is released if the excitation is electrically neutral and doesn't emit photons, is it lost as heat?
