Quantum vacuum fluctuations used to boost superconductivity for the first time
SMRTR summary
Researchers used quantum vacuum fluctuations, the unavoidable electromagnetic noise in empty space, to boost superconductivity for the first time. By placing a niobium diselenide device inside a specially designed cavity, they raised its superconducting temperature by 5.4%, suggesting empty space itself could become a tool for controlling quantum materials.
