Researchers Find Topological Materials to be More Common than Thought Earlier

Taking a major stride forward in a research field that was awarded the 2016 Nobel Prize in Physics, an international research team has discovered that topological materials—substances that have strange electronic behaviors—are actually very common, and include usual elements such as gold and arsenic.
