Can a solid be a superfluid? Engineering a novel supersolid state from layered 2D materials

"rigid crystal flows without friction, all belong to 1 quantum state... supersolid simultaneously has 2 orders, superconductor (super: particles can flow without resistance) and solid (spatially repeating pattern of particles)... 2D) semiconductor structure 2 conducting layers (1 doped with negatively-charged electrons and other with positively-charged holes) separated by insulating barrier... supersolid pre-empts non-super exciton solid... non-super exciton wins, and quantum coherence collapses"
