Below are the most recent papers in this dynamic area of condensed matter physics, ready for you to explore.
This paper investigates the dynamics of bipartite and multipartite entanglement in two- and three-site minimal Kitaev chains, demonstrating that tunable interplay between superconducting pair potentials and onsite energies can robustly generate maximally entangled states, including GHZ and W-type states, despite parity constraints and the presence of Majorana quasiparticles.
This paper demonstrates that the directional accumulation of non-Hermitian skin states can be systematically reversed and robustly controlled by adjusting the system size or boundary conditions in a transverse direction, offering a novel non-local switching mechanism for non-Hermitian sensing and lasing applications.
This paper demonstrates that extended cluster-Ising quantum batteries, despite being Jordan-Wigner integrable spin chains where super-extensive charging power was previously thought impossible, exhibit robust anomalous scaling up to a thousand spins due to a corresponding super-extensive growth in stored energy, although this effect remains limited to finite system sizes.
This study employs phase-field simulations to reveal that asymmetric dendrite stripping in all-solid-state sodium batteries leaves behind kinetically stabilized, isolated sodium metal at grain boundaries, which acts as a catalyst for accelerated dendrite propagation during subsequent cycling.
This paper proposes and numerically demonstrates a design for a diamond photonic crystal slab that achieves enhanced third-harmonic generation by simultaneously resonating the fundamental and third-harmonic modes via a doubly resonant quasi-bound state in the continuum, resulting in high conversion efficiency and tunability across visible to deep-UV wavelengths.
This paper introduces a novel all-electrical spectroscopy technique for two-dimensional field-effect transistors that utilizes transconductance measurements to resolve the shape of hot-carrier energy distributions, enabling the extraction of key parameters like carrier energy and relaxation time without requiring optical readout.
This paper experimentally demonstrates that near-field electromagnetic coupling between two heated microspheres reshapes their far-field thermal emission by inducing a distance-dependent "dressed emissivity," thereby establishing a thermal analogue of the Purcell effect where the surrounding photonic environment renormalizes the radiation properties of the emitters.
This paper demonstrates that the global fermion parity of a delocalized superconducting state in a carbon nanotube-based Andreev molecule can be locally detected through characteristic -phase shifts in the nonlocal Josephson response, establishing parity as an experimentally accessible degree of freedom in hybrid superconducting circuits.
This study demonstrates reversible electrothermal control of a spin-reorientation transition in Co/Fe₃GaTe₂ heterostructures, where Joule heating modulates the competition between the metallic Co overlayer and the van der Waals magnet to enable heat-assisted, device-level manipulation of magnetic anisotropy.
This paper presents a fibre-integrated silicon-photonic sensor that overcomes previous speed and noise limitations to enable continuous, label-free, single-shot observation of protein conformational dynamics at sub-microsecond resolution, revealing kinetic details and molecular heterogeneity previously hidden by ensemble averaging.
