Quantum fluidA quantum fluid can refer to a cluster of valence electrons moving together after they undergo fermionic condensation. Additional recommended knowledgeUnder extremely high pressures and low temperatures electrons may condense into a quantum fluid. In such a state, electrical current can theoretically flow forever with a complete absence of voltage. Quantum fluids exhibit the remarkable property of remaining liquid at absolute zero temperature and zero pressure. This effect arises from their large zero-point energy and the small interatomic forces, both of which prevent the formation of a solid phase. A quantum fluid can also refer to a superfluid (made up of atoms). References
