2016년도 노벨 물리학상은 위상학적 상전이(topological phase transitions)와 위상학적 물질 상태(topological phases of matter)를 이론적으로 발견한 데이비드 싸울리스(David J. Thouless), 던컨 할데인(F. Duncan M. Haldane), 마이클 코스털리츠(J. Michael Kosterlitz)라는 3명의 이론 물리학자에게 주어졌다. 이 이론적 발견은 위상학적 물질 상태라는, 우리 우주를 구성하는 물질 상태에 관한 전혀 새로운 가능성을 제시했다는 점에서 현대 응집물질 물리에서 가장 중요한 업적 중의 하나로 평가된다. 위상학적 물질 상태는 크게 양자 물질(quantum matter)이라는 개념에 속하는 하나의 물질 상태로 재정립되어 현대 응집물질 물리 연구의 최전선을 이루고 있다. 본 강연에서 연사는 이러한 일련의 발전이 어떻게 진행되었는지 설명하고자 한다.
The 2016 Nobel Prize in physics was awarded to David J. Thouless, F. Duncan M. Haldane, and J. Michael Kosterlitz for theoretical discoveries of topological phase transitions and topological phases of matter. Opening up the possibility for new phases of matter, these theoretical discoveries are regarded as one of the most important breakthroughs in modern condensed matter physics. Unified under the general concept of quantum matter, topological phases of matter form a frontier in the research of modern condensed matter physics. In this talk, I would like to provide a pedagogical explanation on what chain of progress has led to the discovery of topological phases of matter.
