    This is a derivative of the quantum Hall state of matter. Quantum anomalous Hall state: A state which has a quantized Hall resistance even in the absence of external magnetic field. Topological insulator: a material whose interior behaves as an electrical insulator while its surface behaves as an electrical conductor.

  3. Quantum state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_state

    The fundamentally statistical or probabilisitic nature of quantum measurements changes the role of quantum states in quantum mechanics compared to classical states in classical mechanics. In classical mechanics, the initial state of one or more bodies is measured; the state evolves according to the equations of motion; measurements of the final ...

  4. Quantum materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_materials

    Quantum materials is a label that has come to signify the area of condensed-matter physics formerly known as strongly correlated electronic systems. Although the field is broad, a unifying theme is the discovery and investigation of materials whose electronic properties cannot be understood with concepts from contemporary condensed-matter ...

  5. State of matter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_of_matter

    A quantum Hall state gives rise to quantized Hall voltage measured in the direction perpendicular to the current flow. A quantum spin Hall state is a theoretical phase that may pave the way for the development of electronic devices that dissipate less energy and generate less heat. This is a derivation of the Quantum Hall state of matter.

    A particularly important discovery of the quantum theory is the uncertainty principle, enunciated by Heisenberg in 1927, which places an absolute theoretical limit on the accuracy of certain measurements; as a result, the assumption by earlier scientists that the physical state of a system could be measured exactly and used to predict future ...

    A state which can be represented as a wave function / ket in Hilbert space / solution of Schrödinger equation is called pure state. See "mixed state". Quantum numbers a way of representing a state by several numbers, which corresponds to a complete set of commuting observables.

  8. Density of states - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_of_states

    The density of states related to volume V and N countable energy levels is defined as: = = (()). Because the smallest allowed change of momentum for a particle in a box of dimension and length is () = (/), the volume-related density of states for continuous energy levels is obtained in the limit as ():= (()), Here, is the spatial dimension of the considered system and the wave vector.

    In this case, even entangled states can be written as a mixture of tensor products of single-party aphysical states, very similar to the form of separable states. In the qubit case, M k {\displaystyle M_{k}} are physical density matrices, which is consistent with the fact that for two qubits all PPT states are separable.
