"d-electron transition metal ions with specific crystal lattices enhance electron interactions creating new quantum phases, unusual low-energy behaviors enabling Kondo effect... immobile particles gain mobility interacting with mobile electrons at Fermi energy... very responsive to external signals, capable of advanced quantum control, strongly correlated topological semimetals at relatively low temperatures (future: room temperature)... qubits (anyons), spintronics (Weyl fermions)"
