This paper introduces a unified theoretical framework combining Green's tensor formalism and non-Hermitian Hamiltonians to analyze single-plasmon transport in 1D nanowires, demonstrating that optimized multi-emitter configurations significantly enhance modulation efficiency and reduce losses compared to single-emitter systems.
This paper proposes a theory based on time- and phase-averaging of fast energy modulations involving next-nearest-neighbor atoms to explain excess specific heat and energy fluctuations in crystals that deviate from Debye's -law, offering new insights into amorphous materials and quantum device noise.
This study utilizes operando scanning photoelectrochemical microscopy and theoretical calculations to demonstrate that photon energy and nanostructure geometry jointly govern CO2 reduction selectivity on plasmonic Au/p-GaN photocathodes by modulating hot-carrier energy and transport pathways to favor CO production over H2 evolution.
This paper develops a nonperturbative framework using extended Sambe-Liouville space and matrix continued fractions to construct effective time-independent Floquet Lindbladians for driven open quantum systems, enabling the calculation of spectral properties and transport characteristics in dissipative environments.
This paper presents a multi-methodological study combining Density Functional Theory with nuclear quantum mechanics to analyze how graphene substrates influence the -decay spectrum of tritium, offering critical insights for optimizing hosting materials in future neutrino experiments.
This paper introduces Broadband Cryogenic Transient Dielectric Spectroscopy (BCTDS), a novel wafer-level technique that utilizes transient phase dynamics under strong microwave excitation to characterize the frequency-dependent behavior and thermocycling-induced shifts of two-level system (TLS) defects in dielectrics, thereby offering a powerful tool for understanding decoherence sources in superconducting quantum circuits.
This study reveals that three-dimensional superconducting altermagnets host topologically protected crossed surface flat bands and Bogoliubov-Fermi surfaces arising from the interplay of superconducting and altermagnetic symmetries, which manifest as distinct charge conductance signatures for experimental detection.
This paper proposes and analyzes a paradigm where a self-generated intracavity field, driven by electrical pumping in a semiconductor-cavity system, Floquet-dresses electronic bands to create a controllable geometric Hall response without the need for external laser illumination.
This study demonstrates that intrinsic charge transport can extend across macroscopic lengths in epitaxial CsPbBr single crystals by showing quantitative agreement between local terahertz and macroscopic Hall mobilities, thereby establishing a robust methodology for benchmarking intrinsic mobility in soft-lattice semiconductors.
This paper demonstrates that non-Hermitian crystalline braid topology can emerge from a fully Hermitian, topologically trivial parent lattice through a zero-mode-resonant projection mechanism, where coupling to a sublattice-imbalanced zero mode induces a singular self-energy that quantizes the complex Berry phase and generates finite-frequency braid transitions observable in topolectrical circuits.
