Quantum Matter Research at Perimeter Institute

Quantum matter physics reflects how the behaviour of a system can differ greatly from that of the particles it is made out of. Perimeter researchers study how and why properties like magnetism, electrical conductivity, gravity and more emerge from "many body systems."

They also work to develop entirely new forms of quantum matter whose never-before-seen properties have potential for many applications, including in quantum computing.
