Two graphene sheets with an insulating layer in between smooth out each other's atomic imperfections, letting electrons zip through with barely any resistance.

A one-atom-thick graphene sheet—and a 'carpet' of a second such sheet above it. This setup eliminates electrical 'potholes' that trip up electrons. The result: record mobility, with quantum resistance jumps appearing in a fridge magnet's field. A step toward future electronics.

🎯 Electrons in the graphene sandwich behave as if each split into three parts—this quantum phenomenon opens the door to particles with exotic properties.
