  • New findings associated with TIMES Project

    New findings associated with TIMES Project

    Recent research by Yuncheng Mao and Claudio Attaccalite has uncovered how magnetic fields can dramatically reshape the photovoltaic response of Bernal bilayer graphene. Their study shows that when time-reversal symmetry is broken by an external magnetic field, the material’s spatial symmetry changes, opening the door to new mechanisms for generating electrical current from light. The…
