This study employs first-principles calculations to demonstrate that the MoTe2/CrSBr van der Waals heterostructure features a stable type-II band alignment and a built-in electric field that collectively enable the formation of interlayer excitons with significantly extended lifetimes (18–45 ps), positioning it as a promising platform for next-generation optoelectronic applications.
This paper utilizes a direct phase-resolved optical technique to image the coherent excitation of spin waves in a CoFeB waveguide driven by surface acoustic waves via resonant magnetoelastic coupling, successfully separating the two signals through their distinct polarization dependencies.
This study presents a first-principles analysis of the multiband superconductor BeAu, revealing its complex Fermi surface topology with high-Chern-number Weyl points and surface Fermi arcs, which supports a topological superconducting phase and potentially explains its multigap behavior.
This paper presents a theoretical framework demonstrating that hyperbolic phonon polaritons in anisotropic 2D materials, such as -MoO, can mediate and enhance long-range, highly directional mid-infrared energy transfer between dipoles at room temperature, extending interactions far beyond the near-field limits of conventional platforms.
This paper demonstrates that spin inertia, when coupled with angular-momentum-breaking interactions like pseudodipolar forces in a honeycomb ferromagnet, hybridizes precessional and nutational magnons to open topological gaps and generate chiral edge states, establishing a new route for engineering topological phases in magnetic materials.
This review establishes a thermodynamic framework based on entropy production to analyze quantum coupled transport in nanoscale systems, demonstrating how conventional thermoelectric effects and inverse currents naturally emerge in single- and three-terminal quantum dot setups through the interplay of energy and particle fluxes.
This paper establishes that the late-time dynamical scaling of strong-to-weak spontaneous symmetry breaking in one-dimensional open quantum systems is universally controlled by the symmetry class of the Lindbladian rather than its spectral gap structure, resulting in exponential growth of the Rényi-2 correlation length for symmetry and algebraic, filling-dependent scaling for U(1) symmetry.
This paper investigates how multi-mode interactions in driven Josephson junction chain cavities degrade internal coherence and shape steady states, revealing that while non-resonant processes dominate equilibrium decay, weak driving enhances resonant scattering to produce observable linewidth signatures and a distinct non-equilibrium steady state.
This study combines X-ray diffraction experiments and molecular dynamics simulations to reveal the anisotropic strain-stress dynamics and orientation-independent phase transitions in -GaO induced by ion implantation, establishing a framework to link macroscopic diffraction data with atomistic models for engineering material properties.
This paper demonstrates that the spin-1 AKLT Hamiltonian can be realized in tunable quantum-dot arrays by deriving an effective bilinear-biquadratic spin model from half-filled Hubbard tripods, where specific hopping parameters and coupling geometries yield the characteristic singlet-triplet degeneracy while suppressing unwanted longer-range interactions.
