Quantum Phase Transitions
Quantum phase transitions
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Quantum phase transitions are changes in
matter that occur because of
quantum behaviour. As opposed to classical behaviour (see
classical physics and
phase changes). Normally only relevant at temperatures close to
absolute zero. For certain types of material Quantum Phase transitions are
important, for example the
Bose-Einstein Condensate.
