When subjected to a magnetic field, the materials containing the particle act
as insulators for current applied in some directions and as conductors for current applied in other directions.

Many of these candidates are completely hypothetical, but engineers are already beginning to shortlist those that are worth synthesizing and testing
for specific applications by searching through their predicted properties —
for example, how well they will work
as a conductor or an
insulator, whether they will act
as a magnet, and how much heat and pressure they can withstand.
For each semiconductor, we can find an appropriate
insulator, which allows to achieve the same efficiency level
as in double - heterostructure lasers.
This is especially important because quantum correlations play a crucial role in many, seemingly unrelated physics questions: Examples are the peculiar behaviour of the young universe right after the big bang, but also
for special new materials, such
as the so - called topological
insulators.
This novel behavior of topological magnon
insulators could lead to new applications in such fields
as spintronics, where spin currents (rather than charge current in electronics) could be exploited
for energy - efficient technologies and information storage.
The findings, which have been reported in Nature Communications, reveal that the h - BN layers form the strongest thin
insulator available globally and the unique qualities of the material could be used to create flexible and almost unbreakable smart devices,
as well
as scratch - proof paint
for cars.
For example, while one layer of this new kind of superlattice can allow a fast flow of electrons through it, the other type of layer can act
as an
insulator.
It turns out that Earth's rotation and the presence of oceans and atmosphere on its surface mean it can be described
as a «topological
insulator» — a term usually reserved
for quantum phenomena.
For example, one layer could allow a fast flow of electrons through it, while the other type of layer could act
as an
insulator.
