TT 3: Focus Session: Entanglement as a Probe for Correlated Quantum Matter

Monday, September 27, 2021, 13:30–16:15, H6

The interplay of quantum fluctuations and correlations in many-body systems can result in novel phases with exciting physical phenomena. Celebrated examples are the fractional quantum Hall effect and quantum spin liquids. A generic property of such phases is their non- local entanglement that manifests itself in topological order and fractionalized particle-like excitations. Excitingly, it has been proposed that such topologically ordered phases might be an ideal building block for a fault-tolerant quantum computer. While recent experiments pinpointed the presence of fractionalized excitations in spin-liquid materials, the characteristic underlying property of non-local entanglement remains elusive and evades a direct experimental probe.
