Motivated by recent experiments on multiterminal Josephson junctions, this paper proposes a model for the intermediate bias regime that treats the central normal metal as a continuum with nonequilibrium electronic populations, predicting characteristic voltage scales that govern mesoscopic critical current oscillations and bridge interpretations across quartet, topological, and Floquet physics.
This paper demonstrates through time-dependent simulations and semiclassical calculations that electrons released from a quantum dot in a spin-orbit-coupled waveguide follow spin-dependent, snake-like trajectories driven by the spin Hall effect, enabling quantum state detection even under weak magnetic fields and incomplete spin polarization.
This paper establishes a theoretical framework for the quantum twisting microscope (QTM) as a direct momentum-resolved probe of superconductivity in two-dimensional materials, enabling the measurement of pairing symmetry, coherence factors, and rotational symmetry breaking through planar tunneling between a rotated graphene tip and a sample.
This paper demonstrates that ubiquitous ordinary lattice defects, despite being geometrically trivial, serve as universal probes for detecting the non-trivial topology of electronic Bloch bands through the emergence of robust mid-gap bound states, a finding supported by both theoretical modeling and experimental observation in 2D acoustic Chern lattices.
This study investigates the early-stage formation and evolution of light-emitting defects in Ag-based in-plane memristors by combining electrical stimulation with correlated optical measurements, offering insights to control electroluminescence for neuromorphic circuit integration.
This paper employs full 3D simulations to demonstrate that while SiMOS electron shuttling is robust against many fabrication imperfections, it is highly sensitive to oxide-interface defects and low gate voltages, which can cause a collapse from efficient conveyor-belt to inefficient bucket-brigade transport modes.
This paper introduces a configuration-space framework that overcomes the limitations of finite-size numerics to predict and explain the hierarchical energy gaps in quasicrystalline potentials as arising from resonant hybridization between distant sites, a theory validated by large-scale tight-binding simulations.
This study demonstrates that silicon exhibits a robust, long-lived anomalous Hall conductivity under circularly polarized light at room temperature, which is attributed to the inverse orbital Hall effect rather than spin polarization, thereby establishing a foundation for silicon-based orbitronics.
This paper introduces an efficient classical framework that combines the fast Walsh-Hadamard transform with exact Pauli operator partitioning and Monte Carlo estimation to compute stabilizer Rényi entropies and nullity, reducing the sampling cost per Pauli string from exponential to linear complexity and enabling the study of quantum magic in highly entangled states.
This paper introduces "rotonic plasmons," a new class of collective excitations in semiconductor plasmonic crystals with parabolic dispersion, and demonstrates that their gate-voltage-driven parametric resonance enables efficient, high-power RF-to-THz frequency conversion for compact 6G applications.
