🧺 A quantum physics term borrowed from a bamboo basket weaver.

"Kagome" = kago (basket) + me (holes). NIMS built one from propeller-shaped molecules that self-assemble, with some electrons massless and others frozen in place.

Researchers synthesized Ti_{0.85}Fe6Ge6 single crystals, finding an unexpected absence of charge density waves in the kagome lattice. What could this mean for future materials design in electronics? #MaterialsScience #KagomeLattice #Physics LINK
