Rice University physicist Emilia Morosan is part of an international research collaboration that has been awarded multimillion-dollar funding from The Kavli Foundation to develop and test next-generation superconductors through artificial intelligence and quantum geometry. This global initiative, spearheaded by Päivi Törmä of Aalto University in Finland, seeks to push the boundaries of quantum materials science and superconductivity.
The project includes funding from the Klaus Tschira Foundation and philanthropist Kevin Wells, fueling this ambitious effort to achieve new breakthroughs in quantum geometry in 3D materials. The researchers aim to develop superconductors capable of functioning at unprecedentedly high temperatures while advancing our understanding of the role quantum geometry plays in material design.
