On appelle «matériaux quantiques» ces matériaux dont les propriétés inusitées [...] ne peuvent être comprises par des modèles simples ne faisant intervenir qu'un atome ou qu'un électron à la fois, mais qui requièrent une prise en compte des effets «collectifs» d'un grand nombre d'électrons en interaction constante.
