Chiral topological phases found in disordered metals, new research shows
Original: New research uncovers chiral topological phases in metals without structural order
New research reports the discovery of chiral topological phases in metals that lack structural order, challenging the usual assumption that topological states require ordered crystalline lattices. The findings suggest chiral topological behavior can emerge even in disordered metallic systems, with implications for condensed matter physics and future material design.
Why now: The finding challenges the expectation that topological phases require structurally ordered crystals, making it notable for physicists.
