How surfaces grow: Research team demonstrates universal 2D growth
A Würzburg research team has achieved the world’s first experimental confirmation of the Kardar–Parisi–Zhang (KPZ) universality class in two-dimensional quantum systems. Using polaritons in a precisely engineered GaAs semiconductor cooled to near absolute zero, they tracked the nonlinear, random growth process in both space and time—proving the famous 1986 growth equation holds in 2D.
