This paper experimentally and theoretically demonstrates how nonlinear interactions between quantized spin-wave modes in a YIG microdisk, driven by two-tone parallel pumping, exhibit controllable non-commutative behaviors dependent on mode selection and detuning, offering a scalable platform for neuromorphic and unconventional computing.
Using density functional theory with rigorous convergence and consistency checks, this study refutes the long-held assignment of specific photoluminescence lines in CuO to copper and oxygen vacancies, demonstrating instead that oxygen interstitials, copper interstitials, and a specific split copper vacancy are the only native defects responsible for robust in-gap states.
This paper demonstrates that magnetic noise spectroscopy using a proximate single spin qubit serves as a powerful, non-invasive probe to quantitatively characterize superconducting dynamics in a magnetic field, successfully distinguishing between critical pairing fluctuations and various vortex phases while extracting key physical parameters like oscillation frequencies and diffusivity.
Using a superconducting-qubit quantum simulator to realize a triangular-ladder Bose-Hubbard model with tunable synthetic magnetic flux, the authors experimentally characterize and identify distinct quantum phases, including chiral superfluids, Meissner superfluids, and bond-ordered insulators, demonstrating the platform's capability to probe strongly correlated and frustrated many-body systems.
This paper demonstrates that noble-metal/graphene heterostructures enable tunable, resonant field emission with non-monotonic current-voltage characteristics, offering a practical pathway for advanced air-channel nanoelectronics.
Using exact diagonalization of the fermionic Harper-Hofstadter-Hubbard model, this study demonstrates the violation of Luttinger's theorem in fractional Chern insulators and elucidates how the fractional many-body Chern number and integer Green's function invariants are encoded in the Středa responses of the Luttinger integral and count, respectively, while proposing an experimental protocol to extract these topological invariants via local density-of-states measurements.
This paper presents a microscopic real-space model of laser-induced superconductivity melting that reproduces experimental critical slowing-down and predicts unique backward-wave-like current textures and phase fluctuations following the pulse.
This study demonstrates that magnetic fields can effectively tune the intensity, lifetime, and polarization of Er3+ telecom emission in layered WS2 by inducing Zeeman mixing of crystal-field sublevels and leveraging the host's anisotropic photonic environment.
This study demonstrates that the spontaneous polarization inherent in 3R-stacked MoS bilayers suppresses exciton-exciton annihilation through repulsive dipole-dipole interactions, thereby enabling high-density excitonic regimes essential for efficient optoelectronic applications.
This paper demonstrates that coating silver nanospheres with thin molecular J-aggregate layers restructures the local electromagnetic vacuum to enable strong coupling and Rabi oscillations in nearby quantum emitters, overcoming the limitations of uncoated nanoparticles where only weak coupling or exponential decay occurs.
