Researchers have made a significant breakthrough in understanding the pseudogap, a mysterious state in high-temperature superconductors, through computational techniques. These materials exhibit superconductivity at low temperatures but shift into a pseudogap state at higher temperatures. By using the Hubbard model and the diagrammatic Monte Carlo algorithm, scientists have discovered that the pseudogap leads to “stripes” in electron organization as temperatures approach absolute zero. This discovery clarifies how pseudogap materials behave and could advance the development of room-temperature superconductors and quantum simulators.
