This paper investigates the phase diagrams of both conventional Landau and fractionalized theories of intertwined orders under periodic driving, utilizing the large- limit and Markovian bath coupling to reveal diverse long-time dynamical behaviors ranging from stable averages and period-doubling oscillations to quasi-periodicity and chaos.
This paper reports tunable reciprocal and nonreciprocal contributions to Coulomb drag in vertically coupled 1D GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wires, offering a new platform to investigate Luttinger liquid physics and develop energy harvesting devices.
This study demonstrates that electrically tunable spin-orbit coupling in epitaxial Al-InAs Josephson junctions enables the control and reversal of Josephson diode polarity, a phenomenon confirmed by a theoretical model incorporating Rashba and Dresselhaus interactions across multiple transverse subbands.
This study establishes two power law relations for the thermal slip length at normal liquid/solid interfaces by analyzing the in-plane structure and vibrational frequency of the contact zone in Lennard-Jones systems, revealing that enhanced translational order and frequency matching significantly reduce thermal impedance.
This paper demonstrates that abandoning the electrostatic approximation reveals a critical electromagnetic evanescent field associated with surface acoustic waves, characterized by a phase velocity equal to the speed of sound and a complex interaction with metallic films governed by skin depth and wavelength.
This paper introduces a quantum information method utilizing bipartite charge and current fluctuations to detect fractional charges, clarify dephasing mechanisms, identify Mott-related quantum phase transitions, and locate interface bound states in ballistic quantum wires, with results verified via Density Matrix Renormalization Group (DMRG) simulations.
By integrating liquid state theory with deep learning, this paper establishes "dielectrocapillarity" as a rigorous first-principles framework demonstrating how electric field gradients enable exquisite, tunable control over the phase transitions, capillary condensation, and adsorption of polar fluids in confined nanoporous environments.
This paper proposes that hybrid superconductor-semiconductor nanowire Josephson junctions can be tuned via in-plane magnetic fields to achieve "sweet spots" with dominant third-order nonlinearities, enabling efficient three-wave mixing amplification in a single junction element with potential for gate-controlled frequency tuning and near-zero field operation.
This paper reports the observation of the Purcell effect in an electrically coupled cavity-magnet hybrid system, demonstrating strong coupling rates and cavity photon lifetime modifications at both room and cryogenic temperatures through electric-field-mediated interactions that drive ferromagnetic resonance in a metallic microwire.
This paper demonstrates that second harmonic generation in multilayer graphene exhibits stacking-order-dependent resonant features in the infrared range, offering a non-invasive method to distinguish between different polytypes and identify crystallographic directions based on symmetry breaking and doping effects.
