Nadrin and perfect conductor: scientists have proved the existence of a new kind of matter
In the experiment at the University of Illinois an international team of scientists was able to confirm the existence of a new kind of matter – eksitony.

Almost 50 years physicists have not been able to achieve such a result, according to Tehnot, citing published in the journal Science study. “A team of scientists discovered from kwasek condensation (of excitons), which represent a bound state of an electron and “interval” with a positive charge.

The condensate, according to the findings of scientists, and there are exiton, a new form of matter. Cased-excitons are reminiscent of the bosons: they are not associated with electric charge and can be in the same quantum state”, – stated in the message. To confirm the existence of exiting, the researchers used crystals, covered diceland titanium and modern high-sensitivity instruments that helped measure the collective excitation energy of particles-bosons couple to the exciton-period, regardless of their momentum.

The crystals were cooled to -83 degrees Celsius. Scientists have managed 5 times to confirm the result of the study, which suggests the existence of eksitony quite confident. The material has many unusual properties: it is a perfect conductor, and insulating material. In addition, exitone has properties nadrin.

On the application of exiting too early to say, however, researchers are confident that the material opens up new avenues for development of quantum technologies.
