High degree of quantum entanglement detected for first time in centimeter-sized crystal of strange metal

Researchers at TU Wien have detected quantum entanglement in a centimeter-sized crystal of a 'strange metal' using quantum Fisher information. This discovery bridges the gap between microscopic quantum effects and macroscopic physical objects.
Why it matters
This breakthrough challenges traditional boundaries in physics, suggesting that quantum phenomena can be observed in large-scale materials, which could influence future quantum computing and material science.
