This paper proposes that circularly polarized laser light can drive monolayer amorphous carbon into topological phases characterized by regular and anomalous edge modes, demonstrating that local atomic coordination and the spectral localizer marker are key to engineering topological states in disordered, non-crystalline materials.
This paper proposes the existence of a novel interfacial topological quasiparticle called the "Janus skyrmion," which features coexisting asymmetric helicity structures at magnetic interfaces and exhibits unique one-dimensional dynamics driven by spin currents and thermal fluctuations without the skyrmion Hall effect.
This paper demonstrates that time-dependent tuning of confining potentials in electron-on-helium systems enables fast, high-fidelity two-qubit gates (specifically and CZ) with minimal control-induced errors, providing a methodology to isolate these effects from environmental noise for future device design.
This study demonstrates that ultra-small oxygen-deficient HfxZr1-xO2-y nanoparticles synthesized via solid-state organonitrate methods exhibit superparamagnetic and superparaelectric behaviors driven by oxygen vacancy-induced defect centers and flexo-electro-chemical strains, resulting in colossal dielectric permittivity and posistor effects suitable for advanced silicon-compatible electronic applications.
This study demonstrates that coupling a multi-mode metal-insulator-metal cavity to a two-dimensional electron gas in a magnetic field creates hybrid magnetoplasmon-polariton modes where the inhomogeneous nature of the TM mode activates observable non-local Coulombic effects, offering a new pathway to probe Coulomb interactions in ultrastrongly coupled systems through cavity mode engineering.
This paper introduces iDART, an interferometric dual-AC resonance tracking technique that achieves over a 10-fold improvement in signal-to-noise ratio for piezoresponse force microscopy, enabling reliable quantitative imaging and spectroscopy of both strong and weak nanoscale electromechanical systems while mitigating artifacts associated with high-voltage excitation.
This paper presents a computationally efficient two-band model for SiGe heterostructures that accurately reproduces atomistic tight-binding results for valley splittings and captures essential valley-orbit mixing effects, thereby enabling realistic simulations of spin qubit devices and electron-phonon interactions.
This paper proposes a multiscale computational framework to bridge the gap between molecular structure and memristive function in organic materials, examining ionic migration, redox-driven switching, and chiral conduction mechanisms to guide the design of next-generation neuromorphic hardware.
This paper analyzes the discrete nature of electron emission at the mesoscale by examining individual point charge spacing under space-charge limited conditions, deriving scaling laws through simplified models, and validating them against computer simulations.
This paper demonstrates that the topological configuration of plasmonic spin meron lattices can be switched between Néel and Bloch types with height-dependent fractional charges through the controlled interplay of evanescent surface plasmon polaritons and edge-diffracted fields.
