Fermionic Hubbard quantum simulator observes antiferromagnetic phase transition

This image shows the ultracold atomic quantum simulator. The red and blue balls represent the fermionic atoms with up and down spins respectively, arranged in a stacked pattern in 3D space, forming the antiferromagnetic crystal. The glass cell provides the ultrahigh vacuum environment for the ultracold atoms. Credit: Chen Lei In a study published in … Read more
