That’s the question every social feed and group chat is agonizing over at the moment.Joye Pate was forced to ask the question earlier than most, when she woke up on a Monday in late June with stomach cramps.

Researchers at the City College of New York are charting a fast-growing area of quantum science centered on materials only a few atoms thick. In these systems, light, electric charge, and magnetism are closely connected rather than behaving independently. The work comes from physicist Vinod M.

Researchers believe these unusual interactions could eventually support advanced optoelectronic devices and quantum technologies that manipulate light, charge, and electron spin together. When Light and Magnetism Interact In a review published in Nature Materials, titled “Excitons in van der Waals magnetic materials,” the researchers examine recent…
